Three Huntington University ministry professors are serving on national boards.

Dr. Luke Fetters, professor of ministry and missions, serves on the board for the Society for Professors of Christian Education.

Dr. Karen Jones and Dr. Tom Bergler, both professors of ministry and missions, serve on the executive board for the Association of Youth Ministry Educators.

Jones was a founding member of that organization and is currently serving a second term on its board.

"It's pretty unusual when you think of all the Christian universities across the country, and the boards are small, maybe 10 people on a board, that three of our four ministry professors are on the leadership boards," Jones says.

"It's a cool place to be because we're thinking about helping to shape the curriculum that's going to be used in Christian education departments in seminaries and in Bible Colleges and places like HU - kind of setting the standard of what Christian preparation looks like," Fetters says.
