James T. Dennison, Jr. is the editor of Kerux: The Journal
of Northwest Theological Seminary and the author/editor
of several books and numerous journal articles. His
"awakening" to the Reformed faith came in
1960 while reading Milton's "Paradise Lost."
At Geneva College, he studied Bible with Dr. J.G. Vos,
son of Geerhardus. After a year in medical school, he
enrolled in Pittsburgh Theological Seminary where he
studied under John H. Gerstner. Sharon Rogers became
his wife in 1966, an R.N. (maternity) in 1967 and the
mother of his four children in the 1970's. It was while
preaching through the gospel of John in 1972 that he
discovered the biblical theology of Geerhardus Vos and
his love of the centrality of Christ was wonderfully
heightened.
