Dale Salwak teaches English at Citrus College in Glendora, California, and is the author of Teaching Life: Letters from a Life in Literature (University of Iowa Press).
Fresh out of graduate school, in my first faculty appointment as a professor of English, I was invited to teach an undergraduate course on “The Bible as Literature.” I’ve never stopped teaching it. For over three decades I have had the privilege of guiding students in the encounter of the biblical texts.
