Dr. Ian Clary

Assistant Professor of Historical Theology

Because all truth is God's truth, and because Christ is the ordering principle of reality, all learning should follow the ancient maxim of "faith seeking understanding." As a committed Christian, Dr. Ian Clary's teaching is conscious of the Lordship of Christ, and committed to the deposit of Christian wisdom handed to us by our forebears.

Dr. Megan DeVore

Professor of Church History and Early Christian Studies

Dr. Megan DeVore's areas of study – Latin, Greco-Roman History, the History of Christianity, Philosophy, Art in Antiquity, etc. – all lend themselves in their very topic matters, to the integration of faith and learning.

Michael Plato

Assistant Professor of Intellectual History and Christian Thought

Michael Plato believes Christian academics are called to be modern "men of Issachar" (1 Chron. 12:32), who understand the times so that they may better instruct others.

Dr. John Wind

Associate Professor of Theology

CCU seeks to engage all disciplines from a robustly biblical worldview, believing that God's Word is relevant to every sphere of intellectual inquiry. CCU therefore takes unapologetic stands on a broader range of philosophical and social issues because of their conviction that the authoritative biblical worldview demands it.

David Bosworth

Associate Professor of New Testament Studies and Mission

In the field of missiology, faith and learning are of necessity integrated. Isolating the theology of mission from the practice of it, is a tragedy. David Bosworth's desire is to encourage students to embrace their God-given calling to shine Christ's light to the ends of the earth and to assist students in discovering what specific role they have in that grand endeavor.

Dr. David Kotter

Dean and Professor of New Testament Studies

The advance of the gospel necessarily affects every area of life because Jesus Christ is supreme over all things (Colossians 1:18). For this reason, the Word of God illuminates and provides categories to understand every aspect of academic study.

Dr. Matt Jones

Associate Professor of New Testament Studies

As a follower of Christ, a student of theology and faculty member, Dr. Matt Jones' responsibility to glorify God rests upon helping students love God, love others, and make disciples through an intimate knowledge of the Triune God. Through the work and power of the Holy Spirit, he hopes to encourage students to think critically, responsibly, and faithfully about the character and work of the Trinity and be an active participant in the Triune God’s redemptive plan for humankind.

Dr. Kevin Turner

Professor of Youth Ministry and Theology

Christ isn't an element here... He's an emphasis. CCU seeks to connect Biblical truths and ideas with all areas of their lives - academic excellence, sports teams focused on glorifying God through competition, and campus-life programs that promote Christ-centered community.

Dr. Seth Rodriquez

Assistant Professor of Old Testament and Biblical Archaeology

Dr. Seth Rodriquez's aim is not only to teach students information about the Bible, but to help them grow in their relationship with God. Study of the Bible should always lead to a closer walk with Jesus Christ. The artifacts and ruins uncovered by archaeology are reminders that the Bible is true and is about real people who faced real challenges and had to exercise real faith in God. As Christians see God’s faithfulness to his people through history, they are encouraged to trust him more fully in their own lives.
