Dr. Evans has had the unique opportunity of being influenced by three of the great Christian leaders of recent times: by Dr. Bob Jones, Sr., for seven years, by Dr. Lee Roberson for eleven years, and by Dr. Jack Hyles for twenty-eight years.

Dr. Evans has many facets. He grew up on a farm in Iowa, and he still enjoys wearing his bib overalls. When preaching in a farming community, he can be found driving a tractor or harvesting grain with a combine. He loves preaching and soul winning. He travels across America preaching in churches. He loves teaching and sharing truth: if a person wants to learn, Dr. Evans is ready to communicate to a group or one-on-one. Dr. Evans loves prayer and reading the Bible—these are serious endeavors to him. Dr. Evans is a well-rounded Christian gentleman. Many people describe him in the following manner: “Dr. Evans is ‘Mr. Hyles-Anderson College.'”
