A long-time Christian who has led and participated in many Bible studies, Chris Bolinger considers himself a “regular” guy who writes for other “regular” guys. After 27 years in high tech—with jobs ranging from software engineer to product manager to sales and marketing executive—he started Revitalize Ministries to strengthen small churches by offering innovative ideas to their leaders. While this is his first book, he has written dozens of articles for newspapers and high-tech publications. He has interviewed Christian authors and church leaders for his radio show and was an executive producer of the film The Song. He has a B.S. in Computer Science from the University of Akron and an MBA from George Mason University. Chris makes his home in the Cleveland area.
