(Escondido, California) -
Westminster Seminary California is pleased to announce the appointment of
Joshua J. Van Ee, M.Div., M.A., as assistant professor of Old Testament,
effective July 1, 2007.
Mr. Van Ee is a graduate of Geneva College (B.A., 1999) and Westminster
Seminary California (M.Div., 2002). He has been pursuing the Ph.D. at the
University of California, San Diego, in Ancient History with a focus on the
Ancient Near East (having achieved an M.A. from UCSD in 2006). He recently
successfully completed his comprehensive exams and was advanced to candidacy
for the degree. He projects the completion of his dissertation in 2008-9.
Mr. Van Ee has taught part-time for WSC since 2002, having previously served
us as a teaching assistant during his M.Div. studies. Students' evaluations
of his instruction in the courses that he has taught here are excellent.
He is a candidate for the ministry of the Word and Sacrament in the United
Reformed Churches, and is qualified to be called and ordained now that he
has been appointed to this position of service in theological and pastoral
education.
The OT Search Committee recommended Mr. Van Ee's appointment after an
extensive search and review of the credentials of approximately 25 other
potential candidates. The president, faculty, and board of trustees have a
unanimous and strong conviction that Mr. Van Ee is the colleague whom the
Lord has been preparing to labor with us here full-time in the teaching of
Hebrew and of the Old Testament Scriptures that promise the coming and
redemptive work of Jesus the Christ.
We thank God for his leading as we anticipate many years of fruitful
fellowship in service to Christ with Mr. Van Ee, his wife Heidi, and their
children.
