On 25 Years of Albert Mohler at Southern Seminary

This year marks the 25th anniversary of R. Albert Mohler Jr.'s service as president of The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. For many decades, Dr. Mohler has been an influential figure in my life. Through his visionary leadership, he has shaped the course of the Southern Baptist Convention and evangelicalism more broadly.  I have served with Dr. Mohler as a research assistant, faculty member, Dean, and Provost. In each of these roles, I have witnessed first-hand, his heart for the church and passion for God's Word. The post On 25 Years of Albert Mohler at Southern Seminary appeared first on Russell Moore.
