The Passing of CRI’s Rick Morgan

Hank Hanegraaff, president of the Christian Research Institute and host of the Bible Answer Man broadcast, reflects on the passing of our dear brother Rick Morgan. Absent the body, he is present with the Lord (2 Corinthians 5:8). One day when Jesus returns a second time, Rick’s soul will return to his body and his body will be resurrected immortal, imperishable, incorruptible (1 Corinthians 15). Though he is no longer in flesh, he continues as one of that great cloud of witnesses. St. Paul said, because we are surrounded by those witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders the race marked out for us (Hebrews 12). Which is precisely what Rick did in his life, including substantial contribution to the work of the Christian Research Institute. As CRI’s webmaster, Rick constantly resolved to accomplish all to the glory of God. Rick contracted COVID-19, along with his wife Cindee, who is the daughter of Walter Martin, CRI’s founder. But Rick did not make it. Please pray for Cindee and their family through this profound heartbreak.
