(b: 22 January 1913 - d: 7 December 2003) was an Ordained Baptist Minister, Theologian, journalist, and evangelical leader, as well as a renowned bestselling author. Henry made it his life's work to present biblical Christianity as intellectually credible and historically true. On the battlefields of modern theological thought, spanning seminaries, denominations, and media, Henry shaped the defenses of evangelicalism with two goals in mind: preserving truth and attracting nonbelievers. He assisted in the launch of, the National Association of Evangelicals, in 1942, served on its Board of Administration, and was also its book editor. Professor Henry cofounded the popular religious magazine, Christianity Today, with Billy Graham, and was its first editor. He also authored a column for the magazine, Footnotes. In 1971 he served as program chairman for the Jerusalem Conference on Bible Prophecy. In 1974, he was named Lecturer-at-Large for the Christian organization, World Vision International.
