Josh Winn considers being known by the Triune God to be the highlight of his life. Period. But after that, it is most certainly being married to Ariella and father to their four young-adult children: Eden, Ruby, Judah, and Asher.
 
Since 2005, Josh has served the Lord at Dallas Theological Seminary in various roles ranging from academics to communications to special initiatives. As vice president for Communications and Community, he helps DTS develop and implement cohesive communication strategies that strengthen the seminary’s mission, identity, and community. He puts his Doctor of Philosophy degree to use by teaching the occasional course in the Theological Studies department and studying the topics that get his wheels turning—biblical interpretation, bibliology, history and philosophy of science, communication theory, and theological method. Josh is active in theological education, preaching, the church, and missions having participated in theological and pastoral training in nearly 10 countries on 6 continents.
 
In addition to a BS in Speech Communication (Northern Arizona University), he holds a ThM and PhD in Theological Studies from Dallas Theological Seminary. His research interests include the history of biblical interpretation, bibliology, history and philosophy of science, communication theory, and theological method.
