Who influences you (favorite Bible teachers)

[Ray Cover]

I am fortunate in that I get to listen to many good Bible teachers on the radio while I work. Many of these folks have had a great influnce in my walk with Christ and I thought it might me neat to see who some of our favorite Bible teachers are.

My list:
Ravi Zacharias
R.C. Sproul
David Jeremia
Chuck Swindoll
Micheal Useff (sp?)
Adrian Rogers

Who are some of your favorite Bible teachers who have influenced you. Not your local SS teacher or good Christian friend but I'm talking about the folks who have written and have programs we all might have heard of.

[BowDonkey]

Tony Evans, John Eldridge and Neil Anderson. All Authors.

[CM Sackett]

Charles Sheldon
Gene Edwards
Jim McGuiggen
Adam Clarke
Racoon John Smith
Mark Twain (no, really...)
C.S. Lewis
G.K. Chesterton

There are others, probably too obscure to be recognized... these are enough from "outside the pages".

The lives and servings of Daniel, Joseph (son of Israel), Nehemiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel and Job.

And not at all because it is the "expected", "obvious", or "right thing" to say... but the life of my Lord (Old and New Testament illuminations) serves as the forge and mold and anvil from which my soldiering is shaped.

For the last 5 months I have been lissoning to the scriptures on type. I can't seem to get enough or want to lisson to anything else when I'm in my van. All this to say ; Paul is my greatist influences at this time.

Never realy read much of modren day biblical writers.

[Troy]

E.W. Kenyon. A dozen or more books.

I especially recommend "The New Kind of Love" and "Advanced Bible Study".

Do a google search.

Here's one most have not heard, Curry Blake. He is the general overseer of John G Lake ministries. www.jglm.org. Troy I think you may really like this guy. He is very big on who we are in Christ, which is a message that is hardly taught in churches. He is also big on dying to self and ministering healing to others(including non-believers). He says because he can do it, all Christians can do it. quite interesting stuff. His first daughter died at age 3. then he dedicated his life to learning how to release healing by finding out why some people have been able to minister healing and so many were not succesful. that was over 20 years ago and he has gotten many answers to his questions. He has many teaching tapes/videos available from the website.
