About the Author

William R. Phillippe was born in Pittsburgh where he says, "Presbyterians are more dense than anywhere else in the country." Educated at Muskingum College in Ohio and Pittsburgh and Princeton Seminaries. He held pastorates in Valley Forge and Pittsburgh, PA; Grosse Pointe, MI, Summit, NJ, Monmouth and Lake Forest, IL; and has been interim Senior Pastor at both Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church and Brick Presbyterian Church in New York City. He has taught at Pittsburgh Theological Seminary, University of Pittsburgh, Loyola University of Baltimore and has lectured at many other schools and conferences.

For ten years he served as a Synod Executive in the Presbyterian Church (USA) and as Chair of the Civil and Religious Liberty committee of the World Alliance of Reformed Churches.

He has been described as, "a creative, biblically based preacher/teacher, witnessing to the global context of the Christian Church."

Vic Jameson, former editor of "Presbyterian Survey" says:
"Phillippe's work will be seen by some as blithe and brash. That's the best part. He takes us on a tour of what and where and why the Bible happened, and by peeling off the dusty old trappings he brings to light an enchanting story about people, and a God, we'd like to know better."
