Graham Cole (Th.D.)

 is professor of biblical and systematic theology at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School in Deerfield, Ill. He is an ordained Anglican minister and married to Jules, a fashion designer and author. He has written books on the Holy Spirit and the atonement in addition to numerous academic articles. He has three children, two daughters-in-law, and a grandson. He enjoys food, film, and fishing.

Hear Cole speak at  CBE's 2010 conference, "Better Together," a conference on gender, ethnicity, biblical justice, and servant leadership.

 Keynote Address: The Biblical Ideal
"Many believe that better together is the biblical ideal. However, for some, togetherness is to be had within a complementarity based on a hierarchical structure, whilst others advocate, as I do, togetherness without hierarchy. In this session we will consider how the Scriptures envision women and men in mutuality rather than in competition. We will examine the great ideal of better together, the great rupture that undermines it, the great repair that restores it, and the great challenge to live it."

Workshop: The Trinity Without Tiers
"Some claim vigorously that God the Son has eternally been subordinated to God the Father and that this provides a model for male-female relations in the church and the home. Others deny this claim strongly as it is hurtful to our understanding of God and male-female relations. This workshop will address the debate and our understanding of the Trinity."
