Sometimes it's easier for me to say no to the devil than yes to God.

Ronald Dunn

Ronald Dunn (1936–2001) war ein US-amerikanischer baptistischer Pastor, Bibellehrer und Autor, der nach langjährigem Gemeindedienst in Texas einen weltweiten Predigtdienst ausübte. Geprägt von persönlichen Schicksalsschlägen, thematisierte er in seinen Vorträgen und Büchern vor allem das Gebetsleben sowie den Umgang mit Leid, Depressionen und Glaubenskrisen. Heutigen Bibellesern vermitteln seine Texte einen praxisnahen Zugang zu Fürbitte und geistlicher Beständigkeit in schweren Lebensphasen, fernab von Wohlstands- und Erfolgsversprechen.
