The Rev Canon Dr J.I. Packer
Theologian Emeritus, Anglican Network in Canada
Dr. Packer is among the best known and most respected Christian theologians of our time. Originally from Britain, he moved to Canada in 1979 to become Professor of systematic and historical theology at Regent College.
A prolific author, his seminal book, Knowing God, sums up the shared beliefs uniting Christians across denominations. More recently, Dr. Packer served as General Editor on the team of over 100 translators and Biblical scholars involved in the acclaimed English Standard Version translation of the Bible.
Dr. Packer's extensive list of activities and commitments includes: Board of Governors' Professor of Theology and Director of the Anglican Studies Program at Regent College, Assistant Minister at St John's (Shaughnessy) in Vancouver, Executive Editor for Christianity Today, contributor to a variety of theological journals, and editor of the Ginger Group's Anglican Agenda series.
Dr. Packer and his wife have three children and live in Vancouver. He enjoys classical as well as early jazz music, railroads and the quintessentially British game of cricket.
