Vance Havner

From a humble beginning in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, Vance Havner was called to preach and licensed at twelve, ordained at fifteen, and preached all over America. Havner became one of the best-loved and renowned revivalist of the twentieth century. His home-spun storytelling, quick wit and powerful Christ centered preaching made him a favorite preacher for over seventy years. Billy Graham called him the most quoted preacher in America. Havner authored over thirty books; you can still hear his sermons on radio and online, and he continues to be quoted today by some of America’s favorite preachers.
