The Evangelical Theological Society (ETS) is the largest interdisciplinary scholarly society for evangelicals. Its membership is comprised of evangelical scholars from a variety of denominational and theological traditions. Members work at colleges, universities, seminaries, local churches, and parachurch ministries all over the world. ETS is perhaps best known for publishing an influential scholarly journal titled Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society, which is currently edited by Southeastern Seminary professor Andreas Köstenberger.

The ETS is holding its annual meeting later this week in Milwaukee. Numerous SEBTS professors and PhD students are taking part in the program. What follows is a list of SEBTS faculty who will be participating in the meeting and their respective papers or sessions.
