New Creation Conversations Episode 019 - Dr. Jeren Rowell on Preaching Holiness, the Gospel of John, and the Challenges Facing Theological Education
In this conversation I’m joined by Dr. Jeren Rowell. Jeren is President of Nazarene Theological Seminary. He is an alum of Northwest Nazarene University, Nazarene Theological Seminary, and Trinity Evangelical Seminary, and Olivet Nazarene University. Jeren served churches in Nampa, Idaho, Chicago, and Shawnee, Kansas before being elected District Superintendent of the Kansas City District.
Jeren has written a number of books and articles – and served for several years as the editor of The Preacher’s Magazine. Our conversation focuses on three of his books in particular: John: In Him Was Life (a new contribution to the Shaped By Scripture Series); Thinking, Listening, Being: A Wesleyan Pastoral Theology; and Preaching Holiness: Pastoral Considerations. We also spend a fair amount of time reflecting on the importance of education and preparation for ministry in the face of the challenges of the changing context of seminary education.
I am really thankful for Jeren and his leadership at NTS. I treasure the opportunities I’ve had a cross the years to share a meal or a cup of coffee and talk about theology and the church with Jeren. I think you will catch some of the depth of thought and heart at work in Jeren in our conversation together.
