FACULTY POSITION IN NEW TESTAMENT

The School of Theology of the University of the South in Sewanee, Tennessee, an accredited seminary of the Episcopal Church, invites applications for a full-time position in New Testament to begin in July 2008.

The University provides equal employment opportunity to all employees and applicants for employment. No person shall be discriminated against in employment because of race, color, sex, age, national origin, sexual orientation, disability, veteran’s status, or religion (except for those positions in the School of Theology and the chaplain’s office where religious affiliation is a necessary qualification).

Responsibilities will include teaching required and elective courses in New Testament for the M.Div. and M.A. degrees, with participation in other degree and lifetime education programs. The position also brings with it the range of engagement in the worship, work, and witness of the seminary community that accompanies faculty ministry. The successful candidate will demonstrate commitment to preparing students for parish ministry.

Qualifications for the position include demonstrated professional competence in teaching New Testament, the ability to teach over the whole range of the New Testament and the first two centuries of the early Church, commitment to exegesis to serve the Church, and an eagerness to teach in a seminary environment. Preference will be given to candidates who have a Ph.D. or Th.D., thorough knowledge of and training in New Testament, and experience in teaching. Knowledge and appreciation of the Anglican tradition is expected.

This is a tenure track appointment. Applications from members of the Episcopal Church and its ecumenical partners are encouraged. Salary and rank will depend on experience and qualifications. Applications from women and minorities are encouraged. A letter of application, a full curriculum vitae, a writing sample, and three letters of reference should be submitted by October 15, 2007, to: The Rev. Dr. Donald S. Armentrout, The School of Theology, The University of the South, 335 Tennessee Ave., Sewanee, TN 37383-0001.
