Jack Hayford (1934–2023) — Pastor, Kirchenleiter, Buchautor und Liedermacher · Pfingstbewegung / Charismatisch · USA

Jack Hayford (1934–2023) war ein US-amerikanischer Pastor, Kirchenleiter und Autor, der über mehrere Jahrzehnte die Megagemeinde The Church on the Way in Kalifornien leitete. Als einflussreiche Stimme der Pfingstbewegung und Verfasser zahlreicher Bücher sowie bekannter Kirchenlieder wie Majesty galt er als Brückenbauer zum breiteren Evangelikalismus, stieß mit seinen charismatischen Überzeugungen jedoch bei cessationistischen Theologen auf Kritik. Für Bibelleser bieten seine Schriften praxisnahe Impulse zu Gebet, Anbetung und einem geistlich geprägten Alltagsleben.
