Christopher Hall

Christopher Alan Hall (born 1950) is an Episcopalian theologian and a leading exponent of paleo-orthodox theology. He was the Chancellor of Eastern University, the dean of the Templeton Honors College, and, together with the United Methodist theologian Thomas C. Oden, another paleo-orthodox scholar, he edits the Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture. He has stated that his goal as a theologian is, "to introduce modern Christians to the world of the early church, particularly because the Holy Spirit has a history."

Hall and his wife Debbie have three children: Nathan, Nathalie, and Joshua.
