Mukhanyo Theological College is privileged to welcome Dr A. Craig Troxel as a guest lecturer during the upcoming Honours intensive in Pretoria.
Dr Troxel serves as the Robert G. den Dulk Professor of Practical Theology at Westminster Seminary California, and is an associate pastor at Harvest Orthodox Presbyterian Church in San Marcos, California. Throughout more than three decades of ministry and theological education, he has served churches in Pennsylvania and Illinois, taught at several respected seminaries, and contributed extensively to theological scholarship through numerous journal articles, and his book With All Your Heart: Orienting Your Mind, Desires, and Will Toward Christ.
Originally from rural Nebraska, Dr Troxel holds degrees from Anderson University, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary and Westminster Theological Seminary. His teaching and research focus on pastoral theology, Reformed spirituality, the doctrine of the church and the biblical teaching on the heart.
During his visit to Mukhanyo, Dr Troxel will present an Honours module on Soteriology, exploring the doctrine of salvation from biblical, theological and historical perspectives. The course will examine Christ’s redemptive work and key doctrines such as election, justification and sanctification, while also engaging contemporary theological questions and challenges within the African context. Students will be equipped to understand, articulate and defend the biblical doctrine of salvation with greater theological depth and pastoral insight.
Opportunities to learn from internationally respected scholars such as Dr Troxel form part of Mukhanyo’s ongoing commitment to providing academically rigorous, biblically faithful theological education that equips students for effective Christian ministry in Southern Africa and beyond.
