Unfortunately the man i believe to have exemplified the life of a true christian died 17 years ago and that was Jim Henson, from what i hear he was as close to perfect as a mortal man could get

Dr. Russ Jurek would be my personal pick. He's a Christian psychologist and preacher. Not quite famous, though.
I can't think of anyone famous that I would hold up as a shining example. But then, I don't watch a lot of "Christian" TV.
I really like Max Lucado. Jan Karon is one of my favorite writers of Christian fiction. I love Nancy Rue's kids' fiction. I mostly know their work as writers, though, I have no idea how they are in person.

Oddly enough, I think Jimmy Carter. Very weird to be choosing an ex-president for this position, but his work with Habitat for Humanity, and his generally mild and good-natured personality, seem to be as good an example of Christian as I can imagine.
Unless you count my former boss, Brandt R. Stickel.

The devotees of Lord Krishna because they actually follow his teachings. (His original Teachings ) the Essenes also do because they also follow- no meat eating, no illicit sex, no intoxication, no gambling. These are the original teachings of Lord Jesus and all pure saints. for the original New testament google gospelofthenazirenes.com For sincere seekers of the original teachings of Lord Jesus. St. Francis was an example of Lor Jesuses teachings. He was vegetarian and loved animals.

I don't know about the seriously famous, or infamous either.
A follower of Christ . . .
You and DebraM, oh FatherK of course, are good examples. Pangel is also. Julia, and WSIDR are also. Hmm, I guess I Walk Funny also is...
Endora is too...
Well maybe I'm wrong...

Jesus Christ. He is the only perfect one. Of us mere mortals, Mother Theresa has to be considered. Nelson Mandela. Steven Biko. The men and women that ran up the stairs instead of down on 9/11.

Very Very Few if anybody, yes even those that claim that they are such "good" Christians are FAR from it.
