2026 den Dulk Lectures with Rev. Brian Vos: Thursday and Friday, April 23 and 24, 2026

Join Westminster Seminary California for their Annual den Dulk Lectures on Pastoral Ministry. This year, Rev. Brian Vos will be speaking on the topic of “You Have Need of Endurance.” The lectures will be held on Thursday and Friday, April 23 and 24, 2026 in the WSC Chapel at 10 am on both days. This event is free and will be livestreamed.
Endurance is the great need of the Christian life (Hebrews 10:36); it is also the great need of those called to shepherd God’s sheep. The book of Hebrews provides both the reasons and resources needed to endure in pastoral ministry, as it calls us to look to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God (Hebrews 12:2).
The Robert G. and Nellie B. den Dulk Lectures on Pastoral Ministry were endowed by friends of WSC and the den Dulks in 1993. In appreciation for the den Dulks‘ 30-year service to the Westminster Seminaries in Pennsylvania and California and in recognition of their passion for the preparation of pastors to preach the Word of God faithfully and powerfully, WSC designated the proceeds of this endowment to bring an experienced pastor to the campus each year to encourage students and offer wise counsel regarding the rigors and joys of shepherding Christ’s flock.
