The Rev. Dr. John F. Hoffmeyer
Associate Professor, Systematic Theology
jhoffmeyer@ltsp.edu

Education: BA, Haverford College, 1980; CATS, Pacific Lutheran Theological Seminary, 1991; PhD, Boston College (Philosophy), 1991. Theological studies at Institut Superieur Libre de Theologie et de Philosophie Religieuse, Paris, 1986, and Eberhard-Karls-Universitat, Tubingen (1982-84). Pastorate in California 1994-98.

The primary focus of Dr. John Hoffmeyer's theological work is the Trinity. He is especially interested in ways that reflection on the Trinity can aid us in making the life and witness of the church more realistic: That is, more in accordance with reality as defined by the gospel. He has published on the German thinkers G.W.F. Hegel and Friedrich Schleiermacher, and is currently working on a book on trinitarian theology and consumerism.

Dr. Hoffmeyer serves as Faculty Consultant for the Seminary initiative Theological Education with Youth. He has worked with the Lutheran Church in El Salvador and maintains an active connection with solidarity work in that country.
