Who is Tony Evans? Educate me.

Tony Evans seems to be cropping up in a few posts but who is he?; Outside of my ‘cultural experience‘ since I’m not from that part of the world.

Who is he beyond the dusk jacket promo on the book cover? Has he been newsworthy lately that makes him topical or what is it that makes his books of interest? Is there more to him than just the name? What is his area(s) of interest/expertise and denomination / tradition.

I‘be quite possibly got some of his material in my library as part of a base package or other collection so be good to know more of him?

* Thought I had posted in general but this ended up in suggestions. 🙄

One of the reasons I like him is because he uses great illustrations to teach biblical truth.

His son (Anthony) has had moderate success as a singer. His daughter (Priscilla Shirer) is an increasingly well known teacher in women's ministry circles.

His son should find a new calling. So should his daughter. The few times I’ve seen her ”speak” she literally reads her manuscripts. So she’s not really a speaker, but a reader.

The dad (Tony) he’s a different story. Very practical and motivational. Sometimes apples do fall very far away from the tree. Just an observation.

Thanks to those who have responded. I was looking to know him through your eyes and why you want his material in your library in addition to the standard biographical presentation of him.

I had never heard of him before. The only reason I reported a bug recently about searching for his books is because I was trying to figure out who he was after having seen someone else post about him, and had a hard time getting the website to work for me on that quest.

I am not alone then in my lack of familiarity with him. 🙂

I think most would be unfamiliar with him unless they listened to his radio show “The Urban Alternative,” which was a 30 minute version of his Sunday morning preaching.

Hi Dal:

There is a "strategy for cultural transformation" free course, have you taken it? and if you have, how was it?

He seems to write a lot about spiritual warfare, is he charismatic?

Thanks ahead of time for the input.

No, I have not taken the course. And yes, he is charismatic. I’m not, but I learn what I can and the rest just toss it aside.
