Author Information

Dr. Cheatham was born in Detroit, Michigan where his family owned a boat and sporting goods store. He attended Wentworth Military Academy in Lexington, Missouri for high school and junior college. The ordained ministry was a later incarnation for him. His early incarnations ranged from a young jazz musician wannabe, to an artillery officer who served in Korea, to a partner in a boat business. His entrance into the ordained ministry came quite unexpectedly when he was thirty. He received an irresistible, mystical call that caused him to sell his home, dissolve a partnership and return to acquire the intellectual tools that would prepare him for his new profession. He completed his BA at Adrian College. Then he went to Garrett Theological Seminary for his graduate degrees. Later, he did post-graduate work at the Jungian Institute in Zurich, Switzerland. On his way to a doctorate of Sacred Theology he was given practically every academic scholarship the seminary and national church offered, including the National Preaching Fellowship of the Methodist Church. To repay this, Richard offered his services, teaching preaching and church history part-time, to a variety of colleges and seminaries while serving as senior pastor in the local churches. He also donates his book royalties to the San Antonio Food Bank. Along the way, he joined Mensa as a means for keeping his mind honed. However, his passion burns brightest when he has a clarinet in hand and a jazz pianist nearby. Dr. Cheatham is the author of Can You Make the Buttons Even?, The God Makers, The Pilgrim Messiah, Following Jesus Beyond Traditional Christianity and Special Blessings.
