Christoph Ochs
Academic Dean Launceston Campus, Lecturer
Meet Christoph
Although German by nationality, he has spent a significant number of years in America, Israel, China, and England, both studying and ministering. Despite climbing the PhD ladder, Christoph attributes his greatest spiritual growth to his year in a small, residential Bible college. His desire is to see this kind of growth happen in the lives of students at the MST Launceston Campus. Christoph is always up for a good theological discussion and even more so if it is over a cup of coffee.
