Dr. Alan B. Stringfellow (1922-1993), a Bible teacher and
minister of the gospel for more than four decades, specialized in
Christian education. Long concerned with the struggle most people
have in understanding the Bible, he set out to write a study course
that would bring believers more knowledge and a greater
appreciation of God’s Word. He wrote Through the Bible in One
Year, Great Truths of the Bible, and Great Characters
in the Bible for laymen, to be taught by laymen. His latest
studies include Insights on the Book of Revelation and
Insights on the Book of Isaiah. Dr. Stringfellow trained at
Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth, Texas,
after which he served at Travis Avenue Baptist Church in Fort
Worth; First Baptist Church of West Palm Beach, Florida; First
Baptist Church of Fresno, California; and First Baptist Church of
Van Nuys, California.
