Guy Christopher Carter's Summary
I am a retired historical theologian wishing to teach on an adjunct basis (one course per semester). I would prefer a Roman Catholic or Orthodox teaching setting, but would also welcome the opportunity to serve as an ecumenical partner in a Protestant setting. My doctoral preparation equips me to teach all periods of the Christian intellectual tradition. Specialization at the dissertation level and in some subsequent publication has concentrated on the history and historical theology of the German Church
