Dr. Josh Waltman serves as Associate Professor of Theological Studies at Liberty Theological Seminary, Liberty University, where he teaches courses in theology, apologetics, and research methodology.
His academic credentials include:
- Ph.D. in Theological Studies with apologetics concentration from Columbia International University
- M.S.L.S. from University of Kentucky
- M.Div. and M.A.R. from Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary
- B.A. from Liberty University
His research bridges theological inquiry and practical ministry application, with primary focus on apologetics (particularly divine hiddenness and trinitarian responses), biblical lament theology, and information literacy in faith contexts. His dual expertise in theology and library science creates unique interdisciplinary connections between epistemology and religious education.
Recent publications reveal two distinct scholarly trajectories: theological works addressing divine hiddenness and psalms of lament, alongside library science contributions on training student employees and supporting online theological education. This synthesis reflects his background as both ordained minister and academic librarian, demonstrating how information literacy principles intersect with theological truth-seeking.
A lifelong Virginian and ordained pastor, Dr. Waltman has served churches statewide as elder, preacher, and teaching pastor. He mentors students toward becoming truth-and-love champions for Christ within local churches while maintaining active engagement with theological discourse through podcasts and interviews.
