Charles Stanley

Charles Stanley (1932–2023) war ein US-amerikanischer baptistischer Pastor, Buchautor und Fernsehprediger, der fast fünf Jahrzehnte lang die First Baptist Church in Atlanta leitete und das weltweite Medienwerk In Touch Ministries gründete. Er stand für eine konservative Theologie der biblischen Irrtumslosigkeit sowie praktischen Glaubensgehorsam, wobei seine Ehescheidung im Jahr 2000 und seine gesellschaftspolitischen Haltungen für Kontroversen sorgten. Heutigen Bibellesern begegnet er vor allem durch strukturierte Andachten und Lebensprinzipien, die theologische Inhalte auf alltägliche Glaubensfragen übertragen.
