Doug Batchelor (March 9, 1957) is an evangelist and the author of several books including The Richest Caveman, the story of his early life and conversion to Christianity. His primary ministry is Amazing Facts, based in Roseville, California. He pastors the Granite Bay Seventh-day Adventist Church in Rocklin, California.[1]
Biography[edit]
Batchelor is the son of the Florida aviation tycoon and philanthropist George Batchelor and the Hollywood film critic, actress and songwriter Ruth Batchelor.[2][3] He spent his youth searching for the purpose of life, including exploring various religions; while living in a cave in southern California, which led to his discovery of a Bible.
He studied the Bible for years, and changed his personal lifestyle, and mainly from this, Batchelor believed that he could show links between ancient Bible prophecies and current world events. Consequently, Batchelor developed a strong Christian belief system; ultimately leading to his evangelist status.[4] Today, Pastor Doug Batchelor is considered to be an engaging speaker with an ability to communicate not only to church-oriented people but also to those who aren’t necessarily religious. His spontaneous, lively humor and down-to-earth approach to living the Christian life engages and brings hope and meaning to hearts from every kind of background. [5]
Batchelor is the speaker of the weekly TV programs Amazing Facts Presents and Everlasting Gospel, and is the primary speaker for Sabbath School Study Hour. These programs can be seen weekly on national cable networks and heard on more than 125 radio stations across the United States. He also can be seen and heard around the world on international satellite and cable stations. He also is the speaker on Bible Answers Live, a one-hour radio program heard around the world. As a pastor, Batchelor can be seen when speaking at the Granite Bay Seventh-day Adventist Church, which is aired as Sabbath School Study Hour and Everlasting Gospel on TV locally and by satellite on 3ABN, Amazing Facts Television, and Hope Channel.[citation needed]
