DR. MICHAEL ALLEN
Dean of Faculty, Kennedy Associate Professor of Systematic Theology
Wheaton College, BA, MA, PhD.
Dr. Allen teaches students to delight in the careful study of God’s mighty deeds (Psalm 111:2), integrating the study of the Bible and theology to prepare students for faithful ministry of worship and witness in local churches. He believes this is crucial to forming men and women for Christ-centered, gospel-driven, and mission-focused ministry in the twenty-first century. Two principal concerns shape his classes and his writing ministry: 1) theological commentary on the Bible and 2) systematic theology shaped by rigorous exegesis and engagement with historical theology.
