Memory of a fine gentleman and teacher

My husband, Bill and my family join me in extending our deepest sympathy to Mrs Hunt and her family and to everyone at The Berean Call on this sad occasion, though we are all confident in the joy that Dave is at home with the Lord. – We had the privilege of meeting the late Dave Hunt during three visits he made to Harare, Zimbabwe many years ago. We were struck by his love for the Lord Jesus and His Word, as well as his air of authority and confidence in the Scriptures when speaking to us. While the large local conference centre drew big crowds of hundreds of people for their 'Touch the Fire Conferences' etc, we believe the small group who gathered for Dave’s meetings was far more blessed by his lectures in which he shared the truth of God’s Word with us. May we too, be like the Bereans who searched the Scriptures daily [to see] whether those things were so (Acts:17:11These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.
See All...). - I particularly remember on one occasion, how graciously he answered a lady in the audience, who expressed her indignation over Dave's explanation that recovery programmes, specially the AA's 12 Steps to Recovery, were occult-based and involved psychology which is un-Biblical. - Dave's teaching through his books and articles and DVDs too, has led me to explore the work of other men and groups who faithfully stand for the Truth eg Light House Trails and their writers, Understand The Times (Roger Oakland), Proclaiming The Gospel (Mike Gendron), Moriel Ministries (Jacob Prasch), the Bobgans and several others, all of whom hold Dave Hunt in high esteem. What a blessing to have met this gentleman and to continue being able to read his books and articles and to watch his DVDs! "Your love has given (us) great joy and encouragement, because you, brother, refreshed the hearts of the saints" (Phil vs7 NIV).
