John's Homecall
15 May, 2021
It is with huge sadness and sense of loss that I write to advise you of the death of John who died suddenly surrounded by his family after a mercifully short illness.
The family take comfort in knowing that John is “Absent from the body but present with the Lord” he loved and served so faithfully over so many years.
John was always so grateful for your continuing support.

He wrote 25 books, including two of Britian's most widely used evangelistic presentations, Right With God and the booklet Ultimate Questions. The latter has over fourteen million copies in print in over 40 languages. His major book Does God believe in Atheists?, published in 2000, was voted 'Best Christian Book' in the 2001 UK Christian Book Awards, and immediately became a best-seller, described as 'a brilliant defence of belief in God'. Other books he has written include: Truth for Life, Whatever Happened to Hell, Meet the Real Jesus, and The Beatitudes for Today.
Dr. Blanchard was committed to Popular Christian Apologetics, a project involving writing, speaking, teaching and broadcasting in defence of the Christian faith.
