Norman Grubb

Norman Grubb

Norman Grubb (* 2. August 1895; † 15. Dezember 1993) war ein Missionar und Gründer der evangelikalen Inter-Varsity Fellowship (heute: Universities and Colleges Christian Fellowship), eines an Universitäten und höheren Bildungseinrichtungen operierenden Netzwerk von Studenten, Mitgliedern des Lehrkörpers und sonstigen Unterstützern.

Norman Grubb war eng befreundet mit Abraham Vereide, dem Gründer von The Family, und schrieb dessen Biographie Modern Viking: The Story of Abraham Vereide, Pioneer in Christian Leadership, die allerdings hauptsächlich für die private Verteilung unter A.Vereides Anhängern gedacht war und dementsprechend stark hagiographische Züge trägt.[1]
