From his time as a religion teacher at Andrews Academy to his current tenure as chair of the Department of Religion & Biblical Languages, Glenn Russell has shown a passion for mission, deep love for Jesus and dedication to students.
Glenn taught religion at Andrews Academy from 1985 to 1999, when he joined the Department of Religion & Biblical Languages at the University. Glenn has led hundreds of students on mission trips and evangelistic series around the world. He hosted the weekly radio and television program Scriptural Pursuit, broadcast on Hope Channel TV, from 1991 to 2006. It is still a weekly radio program broadcast on WAUS.
In the summer of 2005, Glenn directed the first Andrews undergraduate Global Evangelism campaign and has taken students to Benin, Zimbabwe, Kenya and Lebanon to conduct evangelism campaigns. He also leads an annual mission trip to Honduras during winter break. In 2007 he received the “Teacher of the Year” and “Spiritual Life Leadership” awards.
