Person
Darrell Cosden (PhD at St Andrews University) was Lecturer in Theology and Ethics at the International Christian College in Glasgow from 1999-2007, and now teaches at Judson University, Elgin IL. His creative and stretching approaches to teaching have inspired students to have a passion for theology, and to make the connections between that theology and people's day to day lives, as do his books The Heavenly Good of Earthly Work and A Theology of Work: Work and the New Creation both published by Paternoster.
