W. T. Purkiser

Westlake Taylor Purkiser (April 28, 1910–July 18, 1992) was an American preacher, scholar, and author in the Church of the Nazarene.

Purkiser held a PhD from the University of Southern California; he was a lecturer in New Testament Theology at Nazarene Theological Seminary and president of Pasadena College.[1] He was also the editor of Herald of Holiness for 15 years.[2]

Purkiser authored a book entitled The Gifts of the Spirit (Beacon Hill Press:Kansas City. 1975). In the book, Purkiser discussed the ministry of the Holy Spirit in the life of the individual Christian and the gathered congregation of the Church (as understood and practiced within the Wesleyan/Arminian families of the church).

He was married to Arvilla and they had three daughters.[1]
