Greg Salazar (PhD, Cambridge University) is Assistant Professor of Historical Theology at Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary.

Greg’s passion for the Lord and theological studies began at The University of North Carolina (Chapel Hill). In 2009, Greg began his MDiv studies at Reformed Theological Seminary (Orlando).

He is author of Calvinist Conformity in Post-Reformation England (forthcoming Oxford University Press, 2022 in the Oxford Studies in Historical Theology series, edited by Richard Muller). He is currently writing a comprehensive history of puritanism entitled A Puritan History: The Past for the Present, to be published as a companion volume complementing Joel Beeke’s comprehensive theology of puritanism (A Puritan Theology: Doctrine for Life).

He is also the co-editor of The Oxford Handbook of Puritanism (forthcoming, Oxford University Press, 2022), volume six of The Works of William Perkins (RHB, 2018), and William Perkins: Architect of Puritanism (RHB 2020); and a contributor to Crossway’s forthcoming Historical Study Bible (Crossway, 2022).

He has written various ecclesiastical articles (including for Tabletalk magazine), published various academic articles in peer-reviewed journals, and written book reviews for the Journal of Ecclesiastical History, the Westminster Theological Journal, Themelios, and the Puritan Reformed Journal.

He currently serves as Managing Editor for the Studies in Puritanism and Piety Journal, Associate Editor for the Puritan Reformed Journal, and is a member of the Steering Committee for the Reformation Studies section for the Evangelical Theological Society. He is regularly called upon to speak at various academic and ecclesiastical conferences and has been invited to give papers at Vanderbilt University, Cambridge University, Westminster Theological Seminary, the Institute of Historical Research (London), the Ecclesiastical Historical Society, the North American Conference on British Studies, and the annual meetings of the Evangelical Theological Society.

His ongoing research interests include:

• English and American Puritanism
• The Westminster Assembly, Confession of Faith, Larger and Shorter Catechisms
• Influence of Puritanism on Jonathan Edwards
• Reformed pietism and “experimental” religion
• History and theology of “Old Princeton” (1812-1929)
• Post-Reformation theology, especially J. Edwards, F. Turretin, J. Owen, W. Perkins
• Reformed dogmatics, especially J. Calvin, H. Bavinck, G. Vos, & L. Berkhof
• Reformed ecclesiology and sacraments
• Doctrinal development of archetypal and ectypal theology
• Doctrine of inerrancy
• Doctrine of divine simplicity
• Sexual addiction
• Mental illness
• Reformed Preaching

Dr. Salazar also has the privilege of serving as an Associate Pastor at Trinity Presbyterian Church (PCA) in Hudsonville, MI through a ministry of preaching, teaching, shepherding, leading worship, administering the sacraments, and leading a men’s discipleship ministry. He also serves as the Founder and President of The James Fellowship, a non-profit (501c3) ministry that serves the Church by establishing intensive discipleship groups in local churches for men recovering from sexual addiction.

Greg has a particular passion that students would love Reformed experiential theology—believing that the truths contained in Scripture should, by the power of the Spirit, penetrate our hearts, progressively enable our minds, hearts, and character to be transformed as we submit to the lordship of Jesus Christ.
