There are three deeply held commitments which impact Jeffrey Weima's teaching at Calvin Theological Seminary. First and most important of these is his commitment to Jesus Christ, and the deeply held belief that Christ has called him to this teaching ministry. Therefore, he regards his position not merely as a job but rather as a divine calling. Second is Jeff's commitment to the historic Reformed faith and one manfiestation of that faith, namely, the Christian Reformed Church. Third is Jeff's commitment to serving the church by communicating biblical truths in such a passionate and user-friendly way that the person in the pew may grow in his or her understanding of the Bible. Jeff's teaching has taken him all over the world. He has taught courses in Hungary, Greece, South Korea, Kenya, Taiwan, The Philippines, and South Africa. Jeff also is an active member of several academic societies, lectures overseas, leads biblical study tours, conducts intensive preaching seminars for pastors, and preaches widely in the Christian Reformed Church. At Calvin Theological Seminary, Jeff Weima teaches the New Testament, specializing in the life and writings of the apostle Paul .
"The ultimate goal of my teaching and academic research is to support this ongoing, worldwide ministry by providing the church with men and women who are equipped to give Christ-centered, scripturally based leadership."
