John Bevere

John Bevere is a Christian minister and speaker whose writing focuses on discipleship, holiness, and the fear of the Lord. He is best known for The Bait of Satan and other books including Driven by Eternity and The Awe of God. Through Messenger International, his work has reached millions worldwide in numerous languages.

Biografia e Percorso dell'Autore

John Bevere’s public story begins less in publishing than in redirection: as an engineering student at Purdue University who alternated school with work at IBM, he became a Christian in 1979 in his fraternity and later wrote that the experience disrupted plans for corporate advancement and redirected him toward ministry. ((https://og.messengerinternational.org/blog/john-devotional/are-you-walking-in-your-calling/?utm_source=openai)) During the 1980s he married Lisa Bevere, started a family, and served on two international ministries; on February 27, 1990, the couple founded Messenger International and initially traveled the country preaching in a Honda Civic. ((https://help.messengerinternational.org/en/articles/11038178-who-founded-messenger-international?utm_source=openai)) Messenger’s own historical timeline identifies 1991 as the year Bevere turned decisively toward authorship, describing it as the point at which he believed he was called to write.
