Don Miller (author)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Don Miller is an American author and public speaker based out of Portland, Oregon who focuses on Christian spirituality as "an explanation for beauty, meaning, and the human struggle" ^[1] .

Miller is recognized for his feelings that Christian faith should be a relationship, rather than a formula. He writes that too many Christians act like the Bible is a sort of math textbook, rather than a long story of God's involvement with people through friendships with Biblical figures like Adam, Abraham, and Moses. Largely for this emphasis on the Bible as a narrative, Miller's writings have been popular with many involved in the emerging church conversation, though he generally does not publicly identify with the movement.
