Terry Winter
For the screenwriter and producer also referred to as Terry Winter, see Terence Winter.
Terry Winter (November 1, 1942 – December 10, 1998) was a Canadian televangelist, who hosted The Terry Winter Show on Vision TV.
Unlike some other Christian televangelists, Winter took an intellectual approach to faith. He taught that Christianity is a simple faith, not a simplistic one, and that if one decides to become a Christian, one does not need to leave one's mind at the door.
Born in New Westminster, British Columbia, Winter was raised in Nanaimo, British Columbia. Winter died of a brain aneurysm in Vancouver, British Columbia at age 56 in 1998. His television program continued to air in repeats for a few months, ending permanently in early 1999.
