Esther L. Meek, Ph.D., is Professor of Philosophy at Geneva College. She is also a Fellow Scholar with Artist Makoto Fujimura’s Fujimura Institute. ​

She devotes her writing, speaking, teaching and conversations to cultivating philosophical awareness, and epistemological healing for everyone born into an age that is antiphilosophical, epistemologically disoriented, disconnected from themselves and reality.

Born in Philadelphia, Esther attended Cedarville College (BA), Western Kentucky University (MA), Temple University (PhD), as well as studying theology at Westminster Theological Seminary and Covenant Theological Seminary.

Esther lives in Aliquippa, in Western PA, since relocating here in 2004 from St. Louis. In anticipation of the spiritual and structural restoration of this post-industrial town and its people, she supports Aliquippa’s Uncommon Grounds Café in their Advisory Council, and she serves on the board of Aliquippa Impact Ministries.
