Peter Rhea and Ellen Jones New Testament Lectures
The Jones Lectures in New Testament Studies were established in 2008 in order to enable theology students to hear the finest New Testament scholars in the world during the course of their studies at McAfee. The lecture series was made possible by a gift from the Rev. Peter Rhea Jones and his wife, Ellen. He faithfully served McAfee as professor of New Testament and preaching for 15 years and served as pastor of First Baptist Church in Decatur for 21 years.
