Zacharias' family was Anglican, but he was a "skeptic" until the age of 17 when he tried to commit suicide by swallowing poison. He spoke Hindi fluently, the only Indian language that he knew.

Ravi Zacharias was born on 26 March 1946 in Madras, India, and grew up in Delhi. HarperCollins, which owns the Christian publishers Zondervan and Thomas Nelson, also confirmed that it would take his books out of print and remove him from other published works. The Christian and Missionary Alliance posthumously revoked his ordination after conducting their own investigation. As a result, RZIM issued an apology and subsequently announced that it would undergo a name change and remove all material related to Zacharias. In February 2021 Miller & Martin, the law firm hired by RZIM to look into these allegations, confirmed their veracity. Multiple sources have posthumously accused Zacharias of serious sexual misconduct. He belonged to the Christian and Missionary Alliance, the Keswickian Christian denomination in which he was ordained as a minister. Zacharias was the author of more than thirty books on Christianity, He also hosted the radio programs Let My People Think and Just Thinking. He was involved in Christian apologetics for a period spanning more than forty years.
