Tribute to Dr. Dave Reid
Sherri Jason, Feb 06, 2012
Christian Evidences Ministries is mourning the loss of beloved brother in Christ, Dr. Dave Reid. He died on January 31, as the result of a skiing accident in Utah. Dave, husband of Margie (Smart) Reid, taught at Emmaus Bible College from 1975-2003. “Dr. Grace,” as he was lovingly named by those who studied with him, introduced the Old Testament to generations of Emmaus students. His Old Testament Walk-Thru remains imprinted on the memories of the students he taught. Dave loved and valued the Scriptures, and he trained his students to shun “bad hermeneutics” and rightly divide the Word of Truth.
His colleagues remember with joy his sense of humor, boundless energy, and sincere love for the Lord. In addition to his ministry at Emmaus, Dave produced Devotions for Growing Christians in radio and print, reaching thousands with practical lessons from the Scriptures.
We rejoice in knowing that Dave is now in the presence of the Savior he loved and served with his life. Please remember Dave’s wife, Margie, his children, and grandchildren in prayer.
Dave Reid was a key advisor to Christian Evidences Ministries and mentor to its founder, Rob Sullivan.
