Mark Labberton, president of Fuller Theological Seminary, brings to his leadership a deep awareness of the urgency of the gospel of Jesus Christ—and a passion for the vital role that Fuller plays in the enactment of that gospel. Mark infuses concepts such as freedom and joy into his presidency, while using his history of pastoral ministry to help prepare Christian leaders holistically for their callings, nurturing each student’s personal, spiritual, academic, and global formation. Prior to joining Fuller Seminary’s faculty in 2009, he served for 16 years as senior pastor of First Presbyterian Church of Berkeley, California.
