Dr Jordan Pickering is an Old Testament scholar specialising in Genesis and Hebrew narrative. His PhD takes the long way around in an effort to progress the question of Sarah’s unresolved covenantal status in Genesis 17, attempting to establish the theme of the book as a whole and then evaluating arguments about Sarah’s place in the light of the larger theme. He is due to publish a book on evangelicalism with IVP Academic in late 2027. Jordan has worked as a biblical-studies lecturer, a campus-ministry worker and a graphic designer, and is now KLC’s director of media. Jordan is an occasional oil painter in his spare time.
