Dr. Michael J. Kruger is President and the Samuel C. Patterson Professor of New Testament and Early Christianity at Reformed Theological Seminary in Charlotte, NC.
He is one of the leading scholars today in the study of the origins of the New Testament, and the author of numerous books including Bully Pulpit: Confronting the Problem of Spiritual Abuse in the Church, the subject matter of which he will be addressing at our conference.
The phenomenon of abusive spiritual leadership has rightfully received a good deal of media attention due to several high-profile cases. In this daylong conference, Dr. Kruger will offer clarity concerning what spiritual abuse is, what prevents churches from stopping it, and how we can cultivate church cultures that resist it.
