About this author

In a decidedly eclectic career, Eric Metaxas has written for VeggieTales, Chuck Colson, Rabbit Ears Productions and the New York Times, four things not ordinarily in the same sentence. He is a best-selling author whose biographies, children’s books, and works of popular apologetics have been translated into Albanian, Portuguese, Spanish, Korean, and Macedonian.


Eric Metaxas isn't a Goodreads Author (yet), but he does have a blog, so here are some recent posts imported from his feed.

Eric will host a special Socrates in the City evening with guest speaker Joe Loconte, who will speak on the subject of his new book, The Searchers: A Quest for Faith in the Valley of Doubt. At Central Presbyterian Church on 64th St. and Park Avenue. For more information, go to www.socratesinthecity.com.

“...when someone asked Bonhoeffer whether he shouldn't join the German Christians in order to work against them from within, he answered that he couldn't. 'If you board the wrong train,' he said, 'it is no use running along the corridor in the opposite direction.”
Eric Metaxas, Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy

“He well knew his mind's natural tendency to be endlessly on a thousand subjects at once, to flit from this to that and to the next thing to no particular purpose--indeed, he called it his "butterfly mind.”
Eric Metaxas, Amazing Grace: William Wilberforce and the Heroic Campaign to End Slavery

“Future generations would be convinced that nothing good could ever have existed in a country that produced such evil. They would think only of these evils. It would be as if these unleashed dark forces had grotesquely marched like devils on dead horses, backward through the gash in the present, and had destroyed the German past too.”
Eric Metaxas, Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy
