Honoring Dr. O. Palmer Robertson
Friends, pastors, former colleagues, students, and fellow presbyters are invited to honor Dr. O. Palmer Robertson during General Assembly by attending a luncheon on June 10, at 12 p.m. in the General Assembly Convention Hall.
“It is our goal simply to honor this man who has served PCA interests for so long in all of his capacities,” said Bob Penny of Reformed Theological Seminary.
Dr. Owen Palmer Robertson is a Bible scholar, pastor, church planter, seminary professor, author, and missionary-administrator who has taught at RTS/Jackson, Westminster Theological Seminary (Philadelphia), Covenant Theological Seminary, Knox Theological Seminary (Ft. Lauderdale), and African Bible Colleges (ABC). He now serves as the vice chancellor of ABC in Kampala, Uganda.
Copies of The Hope Fulfilled: Essays in Honor of Dr. O. Palmer Robertson will be available for purchase and signing at the General Assembly luncheon.
