What if seminary wasn’t simply about earning a degree? What if it became a sacred invitation to know the Father more deeply, to behold the beauty and fullness of Christ, and to be formed by the Holy Spirit in the grace of God? What if theological education could move beyond simply knowing more about God and become a deeper participation in the life of the Triune God? Could this be the season God is inviting you to go deeper?

Maximos the Confessor reminds us that the mystery of the Trinity is not contradiction, but the beauty of the one God who eternally exists as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit - one in essence, yet three in Persons. The good news of the Gospel is that in Christ, we are graciously welcomed into the communion of the Triune God, sharing by grace in the divine life and love that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit eternally share. #stmaximostheconfessor #trinitariantheology #globalgraceseminary

As Hildegard of Bingen beautifully captures here, the Holy Spirit, the bond of love between the Father and the Son, unites us to the Triune God and draws all creation into his communion of love. #sthildegardofbingen #trinitarian #globalgraceseminary
This profound statement from our seminary president’s chapel message this past Sunday for Proper 19 invites us to see the justice of God through the lens of Jesus Christ. The justice of God is not cold retribution, but the holy love of the Father that refuses to leave His creation captive to sin, death, and brokenness. In the incarnation, the Son does not stand at a distance from our wounds; He enters fully into our humanity and takes our brokenness upon Himself, carrying it through the cross and into resurrection. In Christ, we see that the Father’s purpose is not simply to condemn what is broken, but to redeem and restore it, making all things new in and through His beloved Son. This restorative work is not something we merely look back on, for the Holy Spirit continually unites us to Christ and draws us into the life of the Triune God, bearing witness within us to the Father’s love revealed in the Son. Divine justice cannot leave wounds unhealed. The good news of the gospel is that in Christ, we see the justice of the Father, whose love is determined to restore what has been broken and bring His creation into the fullness of life for which it was made. #divinejustice #proper19 #trinitariantheology #globalgraceseminary
There’s something deeply beautiful about this thought from Chris E.W. Green. The gospel isn’t simply about trying harder to live a good life but about being drawn into the life of the Triune God as we receive the life of Christ and, by the Spirit, learn to live from the goodness and love of the Father. Grace doesn’t just change what we believe. It changes how we live, how we love, and how we become a gift to the people around us. That’s the beauty of the gospel: the life of God becoming alive in us for the good of others.

Bill Winn

Dean for Academic Affairs and Assistant Professor of Theology

Bill Winn is a Christian, husband, father, son, brother, nephew, cousin, pastor, teacher, speaker, author, and friend.  He grew up just a few feet above sea level in Chocowinity, NC.  He has been blissfully married to Davina Locke Winn for 27 years.  Together they have two daughters in college, Faith and Abby.

Bill and Davina grew up in the former Worldwide Church of God under the teachings of Herbert W. Armstrong.  In the mid-1990s, leadership within the denomination received a Holy Spirit revelation that led to radical changes in several core doctrines the church had historically held.  Many doctrinal changes were made during this period of transition away from Armstrongism toward more historical orthodoxy.  Most notably, the church officially adopted the doctrine of the triune nature of God.  So impressive was the Father, Son, and Spirit’s grace toward and redemption of the Worldwide Church of God that in 2009, the denomination changed its name to Grace Communion International.

In 2003, Bill and Davina quit their jobs and moved to Fayetteville, NC.  Bill then entered a two-year pastoral internship under Greg Williams (now president of Grace Communion International).  In 2005, Bill and Davina moved their family to pastor the GCI congregation in the Richmond, VA area, where they continue to serve.  After one year of pastoral ministry, Bill experienced a revelation of the radical grace of Jesus’ finished work. In 2007, he began being mentored by Dr. C. Baxter Kruger.

That’s when the party got really good!

The wonderful folks in the congregation were open and willing to take on the task of digging deep into the richness of the authentic gospel of Jesus.

Today, their local church is called Grace Communion Hanover, and they meet every Sunday in Mechanicsville, VA to worship and explore what it means to know the Father, Son, and Spirit as they are known by them.

Bill holds a Master of Pastoral Studies from Grace Communion Seminary and is currently a doctoral candidate at Global Grace Seminary.

Bill is the Lead Pastor at Grace Communion Hanover and the author of the fiction novel, Uncle Pink: Dirt-n-All. He loves hanging out with Davina and his girls, golfing, fishing, playing guitar, and teaching Trinitarian theology.
