Technology-driven church leader

(B.A. in Religion, ‘09)

Powering the technology of a pivotal church in St. Louis is MBU alum Arthur Bishop. Alongside his wife, Faith (‘08), the duo joined the Journey because of a shared belief in the transformation of St. Louis by the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Bishop serves as the Director of Technology for the church, which includes six locations.

Bishop equips the pastoral staff and congregation to use technology to gain a greater understanding of the Gospel through the word of God. He daily pairs his academic preparation in biblical studies with his role at The Journey.“On a daily basis my biblical studies impact my decisions with technology–from deciding which biblical software we are going to use to helping align a member’s understanding of a concept like ‘Docetism,’” said Bishop.

Before serving at the Journey, Bishop worked at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary while pursuing a master’s degree studying classical, ancient Mediterranean and Near Eastern Studies and Archaeology.

A story of shining on.
