Powerful and influential pastor, writer, and leader D. James Kennedy is dead at 76. He had been in ill health since late December. Kennedy was an important leader in evangelicalism, a strong and active voice and activist on the Christian Right, and a force in the resurgence of Calvinism in the U.S.

The Sun-Sentinal has a good article on his death here. Link from Layman Online.

Kennedy was almost the only popular radio and TV preacher I would listen to. I did not always agree with him, but he was worth paying attention to.

RIP
