Charles "Chuck" Missler is an author, evangelical Christian, Bible teacher, former businessman and US Air Force officer[citation needed]. He is the founder of the Koinonia House ministry based in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.

Biography

Missler was for several years the chairman, the chief executive, and the largest shareholder of Western Digital.[citation needed] In 1983 he became the chairman and chief executive of Helionetics Inc., another technology company.[1] After teaching for many years at Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa, Missler moved to Coeur d'Alene in 1992 and founded Koinonia House. Through this organization, Missler distributes a monthly newsletter, Bible study tapes, and a radio show, and speaks at conferences.[2]

Missler is a prominent speaker on the subject of bible prophecy.[3] Missler has had numerous programs aired on the Christian television station GOD TV, namely the DVD versions of his biblical studies "Learn the Bible in 24 Hours", "The Book of Revelation", "The Book of Genesis", and "The Book of Daniel".[citation needed]</ref>

Missler has also written the foreword to Exo-Vaticana, a book which uses anecdotal evidences to draw attention to the Vatican and its practices. The book loosely presents the possibility that the Vatican is communicating with extraterrestrial life. [4]

Controversy

Missler has also been accused of plagiarism of New Age writer Michael Talbot's 1992 book The Holographic Universe in his 1999 book Cosmic Codes: Messages from the Edge of Eternity.[5] Missler has since publicly apologized for this and said a correction will be inserted in all unsold copies and the book itself updated in subsequent printings.[6]
