Robert G. and Nellie B. den Dulk Lectures

2024 Lectures on Pastoral Ministry

Westminster Seminary California (WSC) will hold its annual Robert G. and Nellie B. den Dulk Lectures on Pastoral Ministry on Thursday and Friday, March 14–15, 2024. Rev. Chad Vegas is the featured speaker and will give two lectures during this series on “Semper Reformanda and Ministry.”

The lectures hope to address the question: what gives ministers and elders the courage to reform the piety and practice of the church entrusted to their care? As a pastor who has led a church through these changes, Rev. Vegas hopes to demonstrate how the doctrine taught in Scripture, and rightly summarized in the reformed confessions, provides the courage and convictions necessary to reform Christ’s church.

The 2024 den Dulk Lectures are now over. Thank you to everyone who joined us for this event, both in person and virtually. You can find the video recordings of the lectures using the links below.
