Your Instructor
Dr. Jason Moraff
Dr. Jason Moraff is Chair of the Department of Theological Studies, Program Director of Master of Theological Studies, and Assistant Professor of Biblical Studies at The King’s University in Southlake, TX. Raised in an interfaith, multiethnic household and within the Messianic Jewish movement, Jason became interested in Biblical studies when he realized that, as a Jewish follower of Jesus, he interpreted the Bible, particularly the New Testament, differently from his Gentile Christian peers. In his academic work and in the classroom, he seeks to address anti-Judaism in Christian theology and preaching, and to develop post-supersessionist New Testament interpretation. He loves helping students mature as disciples of Jesus who serve faithfully in the Community of Messiah followers and the world. Jason enjoys sports, music, the outdoors, and spending time with his wonderful wife, two daughters, and dog.
