Description

Dr. James S. Ward joined the faculty of Nashville Bible School in 1892. A physician, he established the school’s reputation for excellence in the sciences that continues today. In addition to teaching, he served in virtually every administrative capacity during more than a quarter century of service, including two brief terms as president in 1905-06 and 1913. He studied Latin, Greek and greatly appreciated the arts. He loved the word of God and the work of the church. He was a charter member and elder at Central Church of Christ. Mirroring the Master, he was patient, gentle and kind, a man who lived in peace.
