Michael Gilmour

Distinguished Professor of New Testament & English Literature

On a good day, Michael teaches Jane Austen in the morning and St. Paul in the afternoon – such are the perks for an instructor in both English literature and New Testament. He researches animal ethics and regularly teaches a course on Animals and the Bible. Whenever possible, he urges the Christian community to take creation care and animal wellbeing seriously as matters of moral responsibility. These days, he is writing on Hugh Lofting and Bob Dylan.
