Kevin J. Vanhoozer (Ph.D., Cambridge University) is Research Professor of Systematic

Theology at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. Previously he served as Senior Lecturer in

Theology and Religious Studies at the University of Edinburgh, Scotland (1990-98) and as

Blanchard Professor of Theology at the Wheaton College Graduate School (2009-2012).

He is the author of twelve books, including The Drama of Doctrine, Faith Speaking

Understanding: Performing the Drama of Doctrine and Biblical Authority after Babel:

Retrieving the Solas in the Spirit of Mere Protestant Christianity and, most recently, Mere

Christian Hermeneutics: Transfiguring What it Means to Read the Bible Theologically – all four

named Christianity Today Theology Books of the Year (2006, 2015, 2017, 2024).

In 1999 he was featured on the cover of Christianity Today, and in 2015 was the subject of a

feature article by Wesley Hill in the same magazine. He has lectured in various countries on four

continents. In 2017, he chaired the steering committee and drafted A Reforming Catholic

Confession to mark the 500 th anniversary of the Reformation. He served as a member of the

Theology Working Group that produced a paper on hermeneutics for the Lausanne 2024 Seoul

Statement and is currently theological mentor of the Augustine Fellowship (Center for Pastor

Theologians), Senior Fellow of the C. S. Lewis Institute, and a Trustee of Westmont College. He

is presently at work on a three-volume systematic theology.

He met his wife Sylvie, author of The Art of Living in Season: A Year of Reflections for

Everyday Saints (IVP, 2024), while serving as a missionary in France, and together they have

two adult daughters (and ten PhD students). He is an amateur classical pianist and serious reader,

and finds that music and literature help him integrate academic theology, imagination, and

spiritual formation.
