WBS is pleased to announce the appointment of Dr. Brian Yeich as Assistant Professor and Associate Dean for Academic Affairs. Brian brings a rare combination of scholarly achievement, administrative leadership, and pastoral experience to Wesley Biblical Seminary. He holds both a PhD in Wesleyan Theology and Evangelism from the University of Manchester and a Doctor of Ministry from Asbury Theological Seminary, where he previously served as Assistant Provost.
Brian pastors a Global Methodist congregation in Louisiana, with previous pastor roles in both large and small churches, including a church re-start. He has worked as a Missional Discipleship Coordinator with World Methodist Evangelism in partnership with the Inspire Movement, a missional discipleship network based in the United Kingdom.
For the past five years, Brian has served Wesley Biblical Seminary as an adjunct and affiliate professor, teaching courses in church history, denominational history and polity, and Christian classics. He has distinguished himself through exceptional student engagement.
As Associate Dean for Academic Affairs, he will oversee institutional effectiveness and accreditation in addition to his teaching responsibilities. He also serves as WBS Champion for Co-Vocational Ministry with the Vocatia Collaborative.
“I am thrilled to be taking on this new role with WBS,” said Brian. “I look forward to seeing how the Lord continues to work through the seminary to develop trusted leaders for faithful churches.”
“Brian’s scholarship and his administrative skills are both a great blessing to WBS,” said President Andy Miller III. “He has served our students admirably, and we are excited to see his impact increase with this expanded role. Most importantly, he models a life committed to discipleship, evangelism, and dedication to Christ. His active ministry in the local church and his emphasis on Wesleyan discipleship, bands, and class meetings further strengthen his contribution to our mission.”
