When Dr. Warren teaches pastoral ministries he draws from over 30 years of personal experience. After serving as a chaplain’s assistant in the U.S. Army and the Texas Air National Guard, he pastored churches in Texas and Ohio. He has been an educational consultant to his home church for the past 20 years and maintains an active schedule of speaking, writing, and teaching. His teaching interest is preaching and his research interests are how the preacher does theology as part of the weekly preaching process and how to preach topical expository sermons.
