Dr. Terrelle B. Sales has worked in many capacities during his tenure in public education beginning as a Middle School Mathematics teacher all the way up to a High School Assistant Principal of Mathematics and Science Instruction. He currently works as the Assistant Professor of Graduate Education at Vanguard University and works with the Commission on Teacher Credentialing for the state of California on the Education Specialist Teacher Performance Assessment Design Team. In 2020 Dr. Sales was elected to serve on the Board of Directors for the California Council on Teacher Education (CCTE) and is also the newly appointed Editor for CCNews. Dr. Sales’ research interests include critical pedagogy, critical theory, critical theology, and theology. His dissertation topic focused on the interconnectivity of theology and critical pedagogy, ultimately leading to what he has deemed the Pedagogy of Jesus Christ. In 2019 he had the privilege of presenting with Dr. Antonia Darder at the American Educational Research Association conference (AERA) for the session, “Decolonizing Interpretive Research: A Subaltern Methodology for Social Change.” Dr. Sales has been happily married to his wife Porsha Sales for 14 years and ecstatically looks forward to spending the rest of his life adoring her. They share the joint calling of foster care and sees it as a ministry to help show the love of Christ to children of all ages. They currently have four children Levi (8), Ashton (6), Sharia (4), and Celestia-Luna (4). It has been Dr. Sales’ dream to become a full-time faculty member and although Vanguard University will always have a special place in his heart, he has accepted a tenure track position as the new Assistant Professor of Teacher Education at Pepperdine University. Dr. Sales is currently working to convert his dissertation “An Emancipatory Pedagogy of Jesus Christ: Towards a Decolonizing Epistemology of Education and Theology” into a manuscript that will be published this June through Hamilton Books. Dr. Sales received his B.A. in Liberal Arts from Pepperdine University, his M.A. of Education in Teacher Leadership from Vanguard University, and his Ed.D in Educational Leadership for Social Justice from Loyola Marymount University.
