The passing of US Evangelist Ravi Zacharias, who was 74 years old and had been battling cancer, has been announced. He was well-known for his advocacy of Christianity. He passed away in Atlanta. Zacharias is survived by his wife, Margie, daughters Sarah and Naomi, son, Nathan, and five grandchildren.
Before his passing, Zacharias was recognized as a prominent figure in Christian apologetics, and received the Gold Medallion Book Award for his work, ”Can Man Live Without God?” In 1984, he established Zacharias International Ministries, which has since brought together a global team of nearly 100 Christian scholars and authors who engage with millions of believers and non-believers worldwide. Originally from Chennai, India, Zacharias revealed that he was an atheist until the age of 17. His encounter with the Bible after a suicide attempt led him to embrace Christianity and embark on a missionary journey that took him to Canada and subsequently the United States.
