John Morris was known as a man of the Word. He was also known as a gracious, Christlike Christian. He was the 2nd son of Dr Henry Morris, known as the Founder of Institute for Creation Research. After completing an engineering degree at Oklahoma University and four years as a lecturer there, he joined Creation Institute later to be made its president. Countless books were published by him which are well known in Christian circles including magazines, a Daily Devotional coupled with broadcasting for the ICR radio programs. He also led expeditions to Mt Ararat in search of the ark and many adventures were recounted afterwards about the trips. He had an infectious sense of humour that endeared him to all. Another love of his was the old hymns of the faith and their soldi doctrine, many of which he incorporated in his book, ‘How Firm A Foundation in Scripture and Song’. He passed away in 2023, leaving behind him a legacy of faith that will continue to bear fruit.
