The Christian church today should produce Christian teachers, Christian statesmen, Christian lawyers. In every sphere of life there must be men who know their God and who are bold enough to venture something for him.

— Alan Redpath (1907–1989), Pastor, Prediger und Buchautor

Alan Redpath

Alan Redpath (1907–1989) war ein britischer evangelikaler Pastor und Autor, der unter anderem die Moody Church in Chicago sowie Gemeinden in London und Edinburgh leitete. Geprägt von der Keswick-Bewegung, stand er für eine fortlaufende Schriftauslegung, die persönliche Heiligung, Gebet und die Abhängigkeit vom Heiligen Geist betonte. Für Bibelleser heute veranschaulichen seine Auslegungen und Zitate das geistliche Leben als lebenslangen Reifungsprozess praktischer Hingabe und Bewährung im Leiden.
