About Our Speaker

Dr. Chad Van Dixhoorn is Professor of Church History and Theology at Reformed Theological Seminary, Charlotte. A leading expert on the work of the Westminster Assembly, he completed a five-volume work of The Minutes and Papers of the Westminster Assembly, 1643-1652 (Oxford University Press). He is currently working on a major monograph on the Westminster Assembly, having recently completed an edition of John Lightfoot’s journals, also published with OUP. He is the editor most recently of John Arrowsmith’s Plans for Holy War, and serves as general editor of Works of Samuel Rutherford, which is to be published by Reformation Heritage Books in 22 volumes.

​Chad and Emily Van Dixhoorn’s book A Gospel Shaped Marriage: Grace for Sinners to Love like Saints will be this weekend's topic. 

Read more on our speaker.

The God of heaven and earth calls us to know and love him above all else. He has revealed his gracious will to us in the Bible where we find all the direction we need for his glory, for our salvation, and for faith and life.

​It is our belief that everyone can profit greatly by hearing and believing the preaching of God’s word. For this reason, Hillcrest Presbyterian Church in America has held a Winter Seminar since 1989. It is an opportunity for everyone to be instructed in the Scriptures in an in-depth fashion. 

Childcare

Childcare is provided for 2nd grade children and younger during the Friday and Saturday sessions. All families who wish to use this service are welcome but you must register your child prior to the seminar!
