Nancy and John McKenna have been married for more than thirty-five years, having met in the Jesus Movement in Southern California in 1972. With their son, Paul Drew, they have sought to minister the gospel in Peru, Brazil, and Russia with Korean-based ministries, and throughout the United States, since 1996, with the Worldwide Church of God. John is a student of the distinguished Scottish professor Thomas F. Torrance, whose mentoring and friendship have enabled him to seek to continue to hold the challenges of Torrance before his students and the laymen of the Church of Jesus Christ, with a steady confrontation of Christian theology with our modern or postmodern scientific cultures.

John Philoponus (c. 490 c. 570), also known as John the Grammarian or John of Alexandria, was a Byzantine Greek philologist, Aristotelian commentator, Christian theologian and an author of a considerable number of philosophical treatises and theological works. He was born in Alexandria. A rigorous, sometimes polemical writer and an original thinker who was controversial in his own time, John Philoponus broke from the AristotelianNeoplatonic tradition, questioning methodology and eventually leading to empiricism in the natural sciences. Later in life Philoponus turned to Christian apologetics, arguing against the eternity of the world in his De opificio mundi, a theory which formed the basis of pagan attacks on the Christian doctrine of Creation. He also wrote on Christology and was posthumously condemned as a heretic by the Church in 68081 because of what was perceived as a tritheistic interpretation of the Trinity.
