Stories Series: Testify to Glorify with Richard Gamble
 
Psalm 96:3 (NIV) "Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous deeds among all peoples."
 
Richard Gamble is the founder and visionary behind Eternal Wall of Answered Prayer, the world’s largest database of hope stories. Aspiring to make hope visible and renew faith in prayer, Gamble first had the idea for the inspirational structure in 2004 when he was carrying a cross around Leicestershire at Easter to lead people to think about Jesus. He prayed over the idea for ten years until 2014, when he felt a nudge from the Holy Spirit to begin acting upon it.
 
Gamble has spent many years rallying support for the Eternal Wall, a process which has tested his humility and obedience to follow God’s will. Having successfully garnered hundreds of partnerships who want to see the unique project come to fruition, the iconic monument will be a legacy project, future-proofed to inspire and engage generations, supporting them in their spiritual journey.
 
A Christian since 1990, Gamble studied at Bible college before working for British Gas. He eventually left the corporate world to make his mark in entrepreneurship, co- founding both a software business and a marketing consultancy. With a love for soccer, he became CEO of Sports Chaplaincy UK, and was former chaplain of Leicester City Football Club (before they were famous and won the Premiership).
