Hello.
My name is Steven Veach and I am a trained philosopher working in Philosophical Theology, Christian Philosophy, and various Systematic Theologies. I have been a disciple of Jesus since I was 17 years old and had a supernatural experience alone in a room with a Bible in my hands and I’ve never been the same since. I’ve had an insatiable thirst to study the Word of God, and have pursued my God relentlessly since.
I served four years in the US Army back in 1993-1997, then spent my 20s serving various organized churches with little success of finding a good fit. In my 30s I married and focused on family life and my wife and I hosted and led a house church for the five years of our marriage. After we divorced in 2010, I spent six years running a family business. Then, in 2014, I moved to the Oregon Coast and took a job as an administrator at a local hospice organization where I worked for 8 years.
In 2022, I met and then married my second wife, Jennifer, the love of my life. We currently have 10 adopted children (3 still at home) and are in the process of adopting five more. We are employed as caregivers for our adult daughter who is developmentally disabled and who lives next door to our house. I also serve as Theologian-in-Residence and Director of Curriculum Development at Isaac Hunter Ministries, a para-church organization that is focused on reaching the lost, and those who are involved in witchcraft, Satanism, and the occult for Christ.
I finished my BA in 2011, my Master’s degree in 2020, and my Doctorate (ThD) in Christian Philosophy by the end of 2021. A year later I was invited back by one of my dissertation committee members to become an Assistant Professor of Old Testament Studies and Christian Philosophy at my Alma Mater, Forge Theological Seminary. During the two years I was employed at FTS, I taught four classes to both undergraduate and graduate students: Introduction to the Prophets, Introduction to Wisdom Literature, Introduction to Christian Philosophy, and Introduction to Logic, all of which I developed from scratch while employed at this seminary.
At Isaac Hunter Ministries I am active in teaching and writing and developing online and asynchronous courses for the general public and fans of Isaac’s novels. I also write academic papers and book reviews for publication in various theological and philosophical journals, as well as maintain this blog as a repository of my work. I also published several non-fiction books many years ago that will be re-released in the future as second editions, and I have just finished and published a book on eldership and biblical polity titled, “Biblical Leadership: In the Modern Church.”
My current research is interdisciplinary, examining the interplay between Christian metaphysics (the fundamental nature of existence), biblical anthropology (the elemental components of the tripartite being), personal eschatology (death and the intermediate state), and the evangelistic implications of speculative theology in narrative contexts (quantum physics, relativity, and biblical cosmology). I’m most interested in establishing an internally logical extrapolation of not only this creation’s destiny, but also expounding on the mystery of angelic origin narratives, and developing what I call an “Extrapolative Redemptive Narrative” of the Supernatural Realm. This encompasses the origin story of angelic beings, their ontological, physiological substance and essence (1 Cor 15:39–41), their genetic similiarities with human beings, and how their origin story and ultimate destiny of becoming “Sons of God” overlaps onto our own redemptive narrative.
