Hugh Ross (1945 - )

Many people in the Western world know someone who believes that Jesus is real and the Bible is true.  This is not true of everyone, however. 

The Canadian astrophysicist and Cal Tech research fellow Hugh Ross grew up knowing few if any believers in Jesus.  Understandably, he grew up as an atheist.  However, he stated of his time as a young man, “the next several years my study of the big bang convinced me that the universe had a beginning, and thus a Beginner… because the big bang implies a cosmic beginning, it also implies a Beginner, a Causal Agent outside or beyond the universe… But, like the astronomers whose books I read, I imagined that the Beginner must be distant and non-communicative.“  

Ross eventually through research became convinced that the Bible is true and that Jesus is involved. Like millions of others across the globe and through the centuries, he found that Jesus is involved in the lives of people. He founded a research organization, Reasons to Believe which reaches scientifically-minded seekers worldwide.

Edward Wolfe

Edward Wolfe has been a fan of Christian apologetics since his teenage years, when he began seriously to question the truth of the Bible and the reality of Jesus. About twenty years ago, he started noticing that Christian evidences roughly fell into five categories, the five featured on this website.
Although much of his professional life has been in Christian circles (12 years on the faculties of Pacific Christian College, now a part of Hope International University, and Manhattan Christian College and also 12 years at First Christian Church of Tempe), much of his professional life has been in public institutions (4 years at the University of Colorado and 19 years at Tempe Preparatory Academy).
His formal academic preparation has been in the field of music. His bachelor degree was in Church Music with a minor in Bible where he studied with Roger Koerner, Sue Magnusson, Russel Squire, and John Rowe; his master’s was in Choral Conducting where he studied with Howard Swan, Gordon Paine, and Roger Ardrey; and his doctorate was in Piano Performance, Pedagogy, and Literature, where he also studied group dynamics, humanistic psychology, and Gestalt theory with Guy Duckworth.
He and his wife Louise have four grown children and six grandchildren.
