Wayne Grudem (born 1948) is married to Margaret and lives in Arizona, USA. They have one
son, Elliot Grudem, who is a full time pastor at Christ the King Presbyterian Church in Raleigh, North Carolina.
Elliot is married to Kacey and they have a daughter.
Having taught at Trinity Evangelical School of Divinity for 20 years, Wayne and Margaret moved to Arizona in 2001. The
move, prompted by Wayne's desire to find a better environment for Margaret to recover from an auto accident, began a new
chapter in the Grudem family. Wayne became research professor of theology and biblical studies at Phoenix Seminary
A love and passion for research and the Word of God had previously resulted in a BA from Harvard University, a Master of
Divinity from Westminster Theological Seminary, and a PHD from Cambridge University in the United Kingdom.
Wayne has written extensively. His book,
Systematic Theology is used worldwide to train pastors
and leader's in the main doctrines of the Bible. In Wayne's desire to make this teaching more
widely available he produced condensed versions in
Bible Doctrine, and
Christian Beliefs. These
culminated in the Christian Beliefs DVD discipleship course which makes this teaching more
accessible than ever.
As well as being the general editor for the ESV Study Bible, Grudem has written and edited
numerous titles, including: Biblical Foundations for Manhood and Womanhood, Business for the
Glory of God, The First Epistle of Peter (commentary), The Gift of Prophecy in the New Testament
and Today.
Grudem is also a past president of the Evangelical Theological Society, and the Council on Biblical
Manhood and Womanhood.
