Our People

Faculty

The strength of our college is our faculty. These men are pastors, at heart, who each have a love for the academic study of God’s Word and the experience to teach others how to apply this Word in a complex and changing culture that needs to hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ

There are four things that characterize each of our faculty members. First, they each believe the Scriptures are God’s authoritative and infallible word, which is without error in all that it teaches. Second, each faculty member is serious student of God’s word and an experienced minister. Third, all of the faculty must agree with the Christian faith as it is summarized in one of the Reformed confessions (e.g., the Westminster Confession, Three Forms of Unity, or the 1689 London Baptist Confession). Finally, they are each here to help you, both in and out of the classroom, with your studies and with issues of real life.
