Author Dr. Gary Chapman to Appear at Ocean City Tabernacle

The Ocean City Tabernacle welcomes Dr. Gary Chapman to speak at the 8:30 a.m. traditional and 10:30 a.m. contemporary services on Sunday, July 23. Dr. Chapman has degrees from some of the most respected colleges and seminaries. He’s written some of the best-selling books of the past decade and appeared on thousands of radio and television programs across the country. But he also knows more than just a lot of scholarly theories and practical advice – he knows people. He knows how to relate to people, how to have fun, and how to make people laugh. A well-known marriage counselor and director of marriage seminars, Dr. Chapman hosts a nationally syndicated radio program, A Love Language Minute, and a Saturday morning program, Building Relationships with Dr. Gary Chapman, that air on more than 400 stations. “The 5 Love Languages,” one of Chapman’s most popular titles, topped bestseller charts for years. It has been published in 50 languages, sold more than 10 million copies and is currently on the New York Times bestseller list.
