Faculty & Staff

As a student at Portland Seminary, you’ll be surrounded by diverse faculty mentors who bring a wealth of ministry experience, biblical expertise and sound scholarship into the classroom. Most importantly, they are Christ followers seeking the Holy Spirit’s guidance as they walk alongside you in your pursuit of Jesus and his call on your life, wherever it may lead.

Whether you seek to develop your skills as a pastor, chaplain, educator, or leader of a ministry, nonprofit, business or parachurch organization, you will be taught by those who have walked – and continue to walk – on these paths. Ultimately, they are available to offer their expertise, counsel, encouragement and guidance as you shine the light of Christ in your life, vocation and community.
