Daniel J. Treier

American evangelical professor and author Daniel J. Treier has died aged 53 after a “brief” battle with metastatic lung cancer.

Treier began teaching at Wheaton College, Illinois, when he was 28 years old, remaining there for the next 25 years. In an obituary, former PhD student and fellow Wheaton College instructor T.Y. Kieser wrote: “Whether it was Wheaton College, his daughter’s classical school, his church, or the book series that he guided for publishing companies, he poured his heart and soul into these communities.”
