About the Author
In addition to authoring over a dozen books, Ralph Woodrow has had the opportunity to speak for many Churches and groups of various denominations in over 40 years of ministry--including camp meetings, conventions and conferences. Through a unique set of circumstances he was put into the ministry at age 18. His ministry began in Canada, where he went as a pianist for an evangelist--but soon several Churches and groups opened their doors for Ralph to preach extended revival meetings. When he returned home after a few of months of ministry in Canada, God continued to open doors for him to preach the Gospel--holding revivals at many Churches and denominational rallies. As a single man of 21 he felt led to hold tent revivals and also to preach on the radio, with good results from both. From these early beginnings sprang an inter-denominational ministry, through which many effective doors of ministry open to this day.
In his early teens, he began to search the Scriptures--becoming intrigued to discover things in the Bible that he hadn't been taught. Similarly, he began to discover that some of the things he had been taught were not in the Bible. Ralph memorized hundreds of Scriptures as a teenager--his whole life revolved around studying God's Word and seeking God's will for his life. He preached his first sermon when he was 15 in their local Church. He spent much time at the Church, doing anything he could to serve the Lord--mowing the lawns, cleaning the Church, praying, and attending the meetings where he grew in the Spirit-filled life.
Throughout his ministry, in addition to preaching the Gospel at large, he has shared neglected biblical truths. AS AN AUTHOR, he is known for his scholarly research, along with his emphasis on the importance of love and unity. He emphasizes that if Christians disagree on some points of doctrine--they should disagree agreeably--knowing that all Christians agree on more than they disagree. Books he has authored total over a half million in print. Also, he has shared printed sermons with a select list--since 1961. Woodrow was born in San Jacinto, California and grew up in nearby Riverside. He and his wife, Arlene who is also a minister and writer, minister in various capacities locally in addition to periodically ministering throughout the U.S., and sometimes in Canada.

Great Book!,

This review is from: Reckless Rumors, Misinformation and Doomsday Delusions (Paperback)
This book is both a fascinating and informative resource containing various rumors and pieces of misinformation as well as refutations of them and "the real story" behind the rumors. These rumors include such items as the so-called "Bible code," NASA scientists discovering a "missing day" corresponding with some biblical events, the supposed discovery of Noah's Ark, the supposedly "Satanic" Procter & Gamble logo, and many, many more.
The book contains numerous endnotes to support his research. It is a fascinating and enjoyable read. Many have probably heard of one or more of the many pieces of misinformation exposed in this book.

This review is from: Reckless Rumors, Misinformation and Doomsday Delusions (Paperback)
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. As an Evangelical Christian, raised in a Fundamentalist church, I recognized many of these stories I had heard and believed. It kept me laughing and showed me not to take things so seriously and enjoy my walk with the Lord. It was a fun and interesting read.
