Staley Distinguished Christian Scholar Lecture Program
Dr. Donald A. Carson received a B.S. in chemistry from McGill University, a M.Div. from Central Baptist Seminary in Toronto, and a Ph.D. in New Testament from the University of Cambridge. He is the founding chair of The GRAMCORD Institute, a research and educational institution designed to develop and promote computer-related tools for research into the Bible, focusing especially on the original languages.
Carson is an expert in the areas of biblical theology, the historical Jesus, Postmodernism, pluralism, Greek grammar, Johannine theology, Pauline theology, and questions of suffering and evil. He holds membership in the Tyndale Fellowship for Biblical Research, the Society of Biblical Literature, the Evangelical Theological Society, the Canadian Society of Biblical Studies, and the Institute for Biblical Research.
Carson and his wife, Joy, reside in Libertyville, Illinois, where Carson enjoys reading, hiking, and woodwork. The Carsons have two children.

The Staley Distinguished Christian Scholar Lecture Program is funded by the Thomas F. Staley Foundation of Larchmont, N.Y.
