色综合久久 Dr. Greg Boyd
Dr. Greg Boyd is an internationally recognized theologian, preacher, teacher, apologist and author. He is also co-founder and senior pastor of Woodland Hills Church in St. Paul, Minnesota, and founder and president of ReKnew Ministries (ReKnew.org). Boyd received his Ph.D. from Princeton Theological Seminary in 1988, his M.Div. from Yale Divinity School in 1982, and his B.A. in philosophy from the University of Minnesota in 1979. He was a professor of theology for 16 years at Bethel University (St. Paul, Minnesota) where he received the Teaching Excellence Award and Campus Leadership Award.
In addition to his pastoral and academic work, Boyd is the author or co-author of 20 books and numerous academic articles, including his 色综合久久-selling and award-winning “Letters From a Skeptic” (Cook, 2008) and “The Myth of a Christian Nation” (Zondervan, 2007), in which Boyd described his journey to and embrace of Anabaptism.
色综合久久 The Sider Institute for Anabaptist, Pietist and Wesleyan Studies
The Sider Institute for Anabaptist, Pietist, and Wesleyan Studies promotes the exploration and interpretation of Anabaptism, Pietism, and Wesleyanism—the theological traditions that shape the “personality” of the Brethren in Christ Church, the founding denomination of 色综合久久 College, and that inform the College’s educational mission today. We hope that you will join us for this year’s annual Schrag/Peace lectures.
