Welcome to this site

I have now stopped posting to http://truthisthewordblog.blogspot.com. All the previous posts to that site are now also available here at www.truthistheword.com.

.
In future I will be posting regular reflections on three decades of pastoral life under the section ‘What the Pastor Saw’; other regular general or topical entries will be posted under ‘Blog’.

.
The ‘Sermons’ section will contain every recorded sermon I preach; the latest messages will be at the top of the list and I will continue to add older sermons at the bottom of the list. Although I often preach without notes, where I do have typed notes these will appear next to the applicable sermon .mp3 file.

.
The only section that will remain unpopulated for the time being is ‘Church Resources – Bible Commentaries’. All of my Bible studies to date are hand written and I will have to transcribe them before I can post them to the site.

.
If you are subscribed to this site you will be advised every time anything is posted: if you are not yet subscribed then I invite you to click on the ‘subscribe’ icon at the very top left of the site home page.

.
I would love to interact with you, so please leave comments or email me.

Kind regards,

About Me

My name is Christopher Peppler and I was born in Cape Town, South Africa in 1947. While working in the financial sector I achieved a number of business qualifications from the Institute of Bankers, Damelin Management School, and The University of the Witwatersrand Business School. After over 20 years as a banker, I followed God’s calling and joined the ministry full time. After becoming a pastor of what is now a quite considerable church, I  earned an undergraduate theological qualification from the Baptist Theological College of Southern Africa and post-graduate degrees from two United States institutions. I was also awarded the Doctor of Theology in Systematic Theology from the University of Zululand in 2000.

Four years before that I established the South African Theological Seminary (SATS), which today is represented in over 70 countries and has more than 2 500 active students enrolled with it. I presently play an role supervising Masters and Doctoral students.

I am a passionate champion of the Christocentric or Christ-centred Principle, an approach to biblical interpretation and theological construction that emphasises the centrality of Jesus

I have been happily married to Patricia since the age of 20, have two children, Lance and Karen, a daughter-in-law Tracey, and granddaughters Jessica and Kirsten. I have now retired from both church and seminary leadership and devote my time to writing, discipling, and the classical guitar.
