Wikipedia's biographical article on Hal Lindsey, covering his early career, his 1962 Dallas Theological Seminary degree, his work with Campus Crusade for Christ, his authorship of The Late Great Planet Earth, and his death in 2024. Useful for the biographical spine; not a source for the accuracy of his prophetic claims, which needs an independent scholarly source.
