O. S. Hawkins

O. S. Hawkins (* 1947) ist ein US-amerikanischer baptistischer Pastor, Buchautor und langjähriger Leiter des Finanzdienstleisters GuideStone der Southern Baptist Convention.

Heutigen Bibellesern bietet er leicht verständliche, alltagspraktische Impulse, die eine konservativ-evangelikale Auslegung mit Ratschlägen für die persönliche Lebens- und Leiterschaftsführung verbinden.
