Richard Lee, an evangelical
minister, has been a Chick tract fan for over 20 years. Among the first
Chick publications he read were This Was Your Life and The Crusaders series. Jack Chick was influential in helping Richard obtain a rudimentary
understanding of basic Protestant theological concepts, which tided him
over until he pursued professional seminary training later. Richard Lee
met Jack Chick in person in April 1986, although they had communicated by
letter for several years before. Over the years, Richard has made several
"pilgrimages" to Chick Publications to visit and purchase materials.
During this time, he has examined and reexamined the basic theological beliefs
contained within Chick tracts, and maintains that their concepts are basically
in line with classic Protestantism, albeit at a "popular" level.
Richard is an Assemblies of God clergyman. He produced
theThe Richard Lee Weekly Telecast, a cable program that ran
for four years. Richard's biography was published in Who's Who in America,
2000 Millennial Edition. He holds a Bachelor of Arts in comparative
religion from the University of Washington, a Doctorate of Jurisprudence
from Gonzaga School of Law, and a Masters of Divinity from Fuller Theological
Seminary. He is also a practicing member of the Washington State Bar Association.
He plans to develop a Christian apologetics ministry which will engage in
constructive dialogue on various issues ranging from atheism, Roman Catholicism,
ecumenism, charismatic beliefs, and religion in general. He currently manages
a general Christian evangelistic
website. A comic book fan, Chick tracts have combined Richard's love
for picture stories and religious concepts.
