Trinity’s commitment to Biblical Theology, evangelism and mission drew me here, as well as the community of faculty members and students. The students bring a wealth of experience and wisdom to the classroom, and the Great Tradition is surprisingly relevant.

Research Interests: 
Leander's research interests are the relationship between systematic theology and pastoral ministry; the theology of Holy Orders; the theology of mission and evangelism; and the relationship between theology and psychology, especially Object Relations Theory and Family Systems Theory.
