Benny Hinn
Toufik Benedictus "Benny" Hinn (born 3 December 1952) is an Israeli-born American-Canadian televangelist associated with the charismatic movement. He is best known for his regular "Miracle Crusades," large-scale revival meetings featuring claims of divine healing that are broadcast internationally.
Hinn's ministry emphasizes practices such as faith healing, the "anointing," and phenomena commonly described as being "slain in the spirit," in which participants fall during prayer of physical gestures.
Hinn's ministry has been the subject of sustained criticism from journalists, scholars, and religious figures, particularly regarding the lack of independently verified medical evidence for healing claims. Financial practices, including fundraising methods and the use of ministry funds, have also drawn scrutiny, including a United States Senate inquiry into televangelists.
Hinn has maintained a global media presence through his long-running television program This Is Your Day, as well as live events and international broadcasts. He remains an influential figure within charismatic Christianity and has ongoing associations with ministries such as Jesus Image.
