WHAT PEOPLE SAY
"Ryan is simply a fantastic instructor. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the Hebrew Bible and shares that information with his students in a way that makes them want to learn even more."
-Student Evaluation
Princeton Theological Seminary
"An excellent modeling for students of how to take apart a text and close read. Armstrong drew connections between Job and Shakespeare, and its modern equivalent—the rap battle. (Note: Armstrong does epic Shakespearean voices.) I left class wanting to read the Bible and if you know me, that’s about the strongest endorsement I can issue."
