    Speakers

    Kent Hughes is Senior Pastor Emeritus of College Church in Wheaton, IL. He has served three churches in

    his forty-three years of ministry, first on the West Coast

    as a youth pastor and church planter and, most

    recently, in the Midwest completing twenty-seven

    years at College Church where he ministered weekly to

    numbers of college and university students. Dr. Hughes has degrees from

    Talbot School of Theology and Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. He

    serves on the Translation Oversight Committee for the English Standard

    Version and is a long-time member of the Board of Crossway Books and

    Bibles. Pastor Hughes is the author of over thirty books including the

    best-selling Disciplines of a Godly Man. He also serves as series editor of the

    fifty- volume Preaching the Word commentary to which he contributed

    numerous volumes. Kent and his wife Barbara have four grown children

    and twenty-six grandchildren. Today, in addition to speaking and writing

    and some fly fishing in the Northwest where they live, the Hughes’ most

    enjoy being with their grandchildren.

    Mortification of Spin is a weekly casual conversation about things that count. Carl

    Trueman, Todd Pruitt and Aimee Byrd serve up a

    humorous, informal podcast with bite. Join this

    engaging and thought-provoking conversation on the challenges the

    Church faces and what counts in the Christian life. Served up with a

    healthy dose of germane cultural references. Hear for yourself if British

    accents carry more weight. Mortification of Spin is a production of the

    Alliance of Confessing Evangelicals. Alliance ministries include

    Reformation21.org, The Bible Study Hour with James Boice, and events

    held from Florida to Sacramento. To learn more about the Alliance please
