Richard Raines

Christian, Elim Bible College Vice-President, Professor, Author, CEO, Elected Official, Husband, and Dad

Thanks for taking a minute to read my bio. I've been a writer and teacher for nearly 20 years. In addition to being the Vice-President for Mission Advancement at Elim Bible College, I am the author of Finding Washington: Why America Needs to Rediscover the Virtues of Her Most Essential Founding Father. Finding Washington explores our first President's faith and virtues while making a case for a revival of those virtues in our culture. It is packed with historical stories, humor, sarcasm, and social commentary.

I have two masters degrees. A Master of Theological Studies (History of Christianity) and a Master of Theology (Christian Theology) and am in the final stage of a PhD in Christian Theology.

I currently teach World Religions, History of Christianity, Christian Theology, and New Testament Greek. Additionally, I have been a CEO and served in elected office and, along with my wife, spend all my spare time trying to keep my adult kids from moving back in.

Here's the thing I really want you to know: I want to connect with your audience.

I want you and I to have a conversation about the state of things in our country and how to fix them in a way that captivates your audience's imagination and compels them to action. I want to befriend your audience so that when I run into them out in the wild, we can share a laugh about something you and I said on your podcast.

I want our conversation to be so authentic that you and I become friends on this journey and when you think about who to book for your podcast, you think of me. Don't get me wrong, I hope audiences buy my book and enroll at Elim Bible College, but more than that, I want us to captivate your audience for the duration of your podcast in way that makes them want more.
