Academics serving the Church: John A. Beck

How can the Academy best serve the local church? 

This question simply isn’t considered often enough. The unfortunate truth is that the academy’s role in the local church is easily forgotten or misconstrued by all involved. But as disciples of Christ, and as passionate academics, it’s a fundamental question for us to reflect on. 

Each week we bring you a new video of a Zondervan Academic author answering this question. This week we feature John A. Beck.

John Beck earned his ThM and PhD from Trinity International University and is currently an adjunct instructor for Jerusalem University College. His passion to aid others in their Bible reading has led to the publication of a variety of books, including The Land of Milk and Honey, God as Storyteller, and A Visual Guide to Bible Events.
