Gordon D. Fee, PhD (University of Southern California) was Professor Emeritus of New Testament Studies at Regent College in Vancouver, Canada.
Gordon D. Fee went home to be with the Lord on October 25, 2022.
I learned of Gordon Fee’s passing yesterday [October 26] from his gracious and kind daughter, Cherith.
Gordon and his family always treated me so graciously. Gordon kind of took me under his wing and looked out for me. Also, by his being a giant in Pentecostal scholarship and a scholar that was respected outside Pentecostalism, he did so much for the movement and for the generation of scholars I’m a part of. We build on his shoulders.
