About

Doug Powell

Doug graduated from Biola University with a Masters in Christian Apologetics, which led to an unexpected career as a writer and speaker. The Holman QuickSource Guide to Apologetics was published in 2006 and is a bestseller in its genre. In 2019 it was retitled The Ulitmate Guide to Defend Your Faith. He also contributed to The Apologetics Study Bible, The Apologetics Study Bible for Students, and The Worldview Study Bible. Doug combined his graphic design skills with apologetics to create the iWitness series of books and apps. Each of the eight books is a visually immersive experience that lets the reader guide sort through the evidence supporting Christian truth claims. He’s also co-authored books with Laura Smith (Heroes and Villains of the Bible – for the Museum of the Bible), and Amy Parker (The Big Book of Bible Questions).

As a songwriter/musician, Doug has released nine albums, and appeared on Late Night with Conan O’Brien, CNN, NPR, and the World Cafe, as well as the Alan Parsons’ album The Secret.

His first novel, a biblical archaeological thriller titled The Well of the Soul, was published in 2021 with two more in the series to follow in 2022.
