Joel Muddamalle

Dr. Joel Muddamalle is a Bible teacher, theologian, author, podcaster, book coach, husband and father of four.

Muddamalle was born in Chicago but lived in India from ages 2-5 years with his grandparents. Fully immersed in Indian culture, he moved back to Chicago to live with his mother and father, starting school at 5 years old.

He describes his reentry into the United States as the “beginning of a thorough destabilization” suffering from shame, fear, and discrimination. This hardship made him vow to never be bullied again, taking the route of perfectionism and control.

Muddamalle earned a ThM and PhD in Theology from Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. He also earned an MS in Psychology from the University of Phoenix while he was church planting. 

Today, Muddamalle is the Director of Theology and Research at Proverbs 31 Ministries and is the theologian in residence at Haven Place Ministries, a non-profit that provides personalized theology, therapy retreats and smaller gatherings.

He is a theological consultant for the COMPEL Training for authors and speakers.

He also founded the online platform Humble Theology, where he shares original Bible-based content, including courses and free teachings to help Christians understand Scripture.
