Dr. Richard Hughes, who previously taught at MSU (then Southwest Missouri State University), recently published an article about our former Department Head and founding professor of the Department of Religious Studies, Dr. Gerrit ten Zythoff.

The article, “Yes, they are children of Nazis, but we are Christians, and we will stand with those who suffer”, appeared in the Baptist News and includes photos of Dr. ten Zythoff, as well as a link to read the text of oral interviews conducted with Dr. ten Zythoff.
