Ben grew up in Virginia Beach, Virginia, and met Christ at an early age. After being heavily involved in Cru throughout college and developing a great desire to see young people transformed by Jesus, he joined Cru staff in 2011. He serves with Josh McDowell Ministry (A Cru Ministry) as an Author, Speaker, and the Director of Resolution.
For 10+ years of his life Ben experienced deep anger, a porn addiction, and mental health issues like anxiety and depression, before finding hope and healing through biblical, neuroscientific, and psychological solutions.
As a young man, Josh McDowell considered himself an agnostic. He truly believed that Christianity was worthless. However, when challenged to intellectually examine the claims of Christianity, Josh discovered compelling, overwhelming evidence for the reliability of the Christian faith. After trusting in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord, Josh’s life changed dramatically as he experienced the power of God’s love.
Josh is the founder and president of Josh McDowell Ministry (A Cru Ministry). He has written or co-authored 152 books in 128 languages and addressed more than 46 million people, giving over 37,000 talks in 140 countries. Audiences around the world have heard him relate his own story of overcoming the deep wounds he suffered in his childhood and youth by the immeasurable kindness of God and many of the principles shared in the Resolution movement.
