Giovan King
I have completed three honors dissertations in the course of obtaining my A.B. (church music); M.Div. (missionary ministry); and D.Min. (dealing with decreasing church attendance). I published in the Stanford Law Review on church law and as a member of the Law Review edited professors' and classmates' publications. I edited two books. "A City Build on a Hill" was a compendium of lectures given at a national seminar and "Running the Race" included writings by myself and clergy and lay from around the world. I was part of the faculty of Virginia Theological Seminary's Summer Collegium for five years, evaluating the work of individuals who had been priests for a number of years but desired to refresh their training. While serving as Chair of the Commission on Ministry, I evaluated writings of Nominees, Postulants, and Candidates. I have mentored two individuals who are now priests and am now mentoring a nominee for the priesthood, and am a reader for his D.Min. thesis.
