effective in seminar series, and on both television and radio.

Theology) and took his education at UCLA, UC Berkeley, Harvard Medical
School, and Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, among others.
Dr. Evans was a post-doctoral Resident Graduate and Teaching

“I
recently had the privilege of spending the day with Dr. Evans
in my car. Unbelievable!
It was like having Francis Schaeffer, C.S. Lewis, and
J.I. Packer riding around with me all day long.
I have no doubt that Dr. Evans is quickly becoming
evangelicalism’s foremost thinker, writer, and spokesperson.
He will soon be recognized as the one who picked up
where some of the greatest figures in Christianity left
off.”
