Summer Scripture Seminar

Where Scholarship, Spirituality and Ministry Converge

Faculty

Each year, the Summer Scripture Seminar assembles a faculty from among the best biblical exegetes and theologians to lead the program.  Faculty are drawn from USML, the several theological faculties in Chicago and from universities across the USA.  When you attend the Summer Scripture Seminar, you will hear from scholars who literally “wrote to book” on contemporary scholarship.  In the coming seminar, we welcome the following scholars as presenters.
