Dr. Hwang has a deep sense of God’s vocational call on him as a Christian educator. He has published widely in Old Testament and theological studies, with an emphasis on the Pentateuch and prophetic literature, mission studies, and the contextualization of biblical theology in Asian contexts. He is the co-editor (with Angukali Rotokha) of Exploring the Old Testament in Asia: Evangelical Perspectives and the author of Contextualization and the Old Testament: Between Asian and Western Perspectives (both published in 2022 by Asia Theological Association/Langham Literature). He has written commentaries on Hosea and Jeremiah, and is currently working on a commentary on Job. He serves as Executive Editor of the Evangelical Review of Theology (a journal published by the World Evangelical Alliance), and is a member of the New Living Translation Bible Translation Committee.
