Iain Donald Campbell (20 September 1963 – 28 January 2017) was a minister and former Moderator in the Free Church of Scotland.[1] He was a prolific author on a range of Biblical topics and church history. Campbell died in January 2017, and it subsequently emerged that he killed himself due to revelations surrounding Campbell having multiple extra-marital affairs with members of his congregation.[2][3]
