William Mackenzie

William is a gold medal graduate of Glasgow University. Initially he worked in agriculture and continues to be active in the family farming business. He began publishing Christian books over thirty years ago, with the objective of bringing to children the truth of the Gospel through Bible stories. Christian Focus now has 1900 titles in print, under four inprints – for pastors, students, adults and children – and operates across the world in seventy-five different languages. William’s passion is to bring glory to God by pointing readers to the excellencies of the Gospel. As a ruling elder for thirty-five years, he regularly preaches in congregations large and small, often taking the opportunity to encourage the use of Christian literature! William and his wife Carine (an author in her own right) live in Inverness, in the highlands of Scotland. They have three daughters who are all following Jesus, and eight grandchildren.
