Shepherds Theological Seminary is proud to announce the arrival of Dr. Doug Bookman. Dr. Bookman will be serving as Professor of New Testament Exposition and Director of Student Recruitment beginning this fall.
Dr. Bookman has a combined 40 years of experience as a seminary professor, pastor, and conference speaker. He describes his ministry passion on his website, www.bookmanministries.com:
I have given most of my professional life to teaching on the post-secondary level in Christian institutions. Over those years I developed a focus which has become exceedingly precious to me: the life and ministry of the Lord Jesus Christ.
God has impressed upon me and my family the wisdom of spending whatever years I have left doing what I do best and – of those endeavors to which I might give myself – that which most deserves to be done. I am persuaded that that would be to focus on teaching and preaching and writing on the life of Christ. To be sure, there are other areas of biblical and theological instruction which I feel qualified to address, and which I will address as the opportunity arises. But the person and work of Christ is the area of study to which I have given myself most carefully, and about which I am convinced I have some things to say that deserve to be said and that no one else is saying.
We are looking forward to the Christ-centered presence Dr. Bookman will bring to the campus.
