Evangelical leader Melvin Tinker passes away.
Leading British Anglican evangelical speaker and author, Rev Melvin Tinker, has died aged 66.
Tinker was the author of around 15 books. His 2018 analysis of the effect of social Marxism on the Western Church, That Hideous Strength: How the West was lost, published by Evangelical Press, was among his most critically acclaimed works.
His son Michael revealed on Twitter in October that his father had been diagnosed with terminal pancreatic cancer.
On November 19, Michael reported: "It seems Dad is entering his final few days. Last Monday he was having conversations about chemo, but then came a scan which showed the cancer had spread far more rapidly than anyone expected. He's now home from the hospital and we're with him."
Melvin Tinker died in the early hours of November 23, the orthodox website Anglican Mainstream announced.
The Christ Church Network, Hull, where he was Director of Theology, said he passed away surrounded by his wife and family, and listening to David Suchet's reading of the book of Revelation.
