Richard C. Whitcomb
Richard C. Whitcomb ist ein US-amerikanischer Pastor, Missionar und Autor, der seit den 1980er-Jahren in Ghana wirkt und die Agape House New Testament Church in Accra gründete. Er steht für eine pfingstlich-charismatisch geprägte Verkündigung, die persönliche Jüngerschaft und Evangelisation eng mit praktischer Sozialarbeit verknüpft. Bibellesern begegnet er heute vor allem durch digitale Andachten und Lesepläne, die biblische Texte auf den praktischen Alltag übertragen.
