About Dr. Groothuis:
Dr. Douglas Groothuis has fire in his bones for the Christian message and many irons in the fire to explain, defend, and apply that message. He has been explaining the world to the church and explaining the church to the world for nearly fifty years through his teaching, preaching, writing, mentoring, and general witness. His passion is to take to the streets the truth and significance of the Christian worldview for all of life. To that end, he publishes both academic and popular works, preaches in churches, gives public lectures, and engages in debates. Since 1983, he has appeared on hundreds of radio programs and podcasts. His students and peers regard him as a knowledgeable, sharp, and forceful yet gentle communicator of the Christian message.
