Adam Couchman is the Registrar at Yarra Theological Union and a PhD student at Eva Burrows College. His research is investigating Jesus as a worshipper in the light of the creeds.
Adam’s studies have included research into the sacramentality of the ceremonies of The Salvation Army, the theological anthropology of Gregory of Nyssa, and Christian holiness. Adam’s undergraduate degree was completed through the Sydney College of Divinity, his Honours through Charles Sturt University, and his MA with Distinction was awarded by the University of Manchester.
Adam has taught previously in the areas of Worship and Theology. He enjoys seeing students deepen in their faith and for this to have an impact on their ministry and personal spirituality. A student recently shared with Adam; “At first, I was afraid of taking your class, but you made learning more understandable than I imagined.”
Adam was also an Officer in The Salvation Army for seventeen years.
