William Cutrer, M.D.

“Dr. Bill,” as he was called, also served on the faculty of The Institute for Sexual Wholeness, and he staffed the clinic at SBTS. Before his time there, he served as the medical director of A Woman’s Choice Clinic and as the area director for the Christian Medical and Dental Associations in the Southwest. He spent his first two decades as a medical doctor in Dallas, but after graduating from Dallas Theological Seminary, he resigned from his practice and became a senior pastor in Mesquite, Texas. My husband and I accompanied him on numerous medical mission trips to Russia/Belarus and to Mexico (I went as a journalist, my husband as a theologian).

Dr. Cutrer received his M.D. degree from the University of Kentucky, followed by a master’s degree in biblical studies from Dallas Theological Seminary. He was the author of Under the Fig Leaves, Family Building: Fact, Fallacy, and Faith, Choices: A Pregnancy Guide, and The Church Leader’s Handbook. He contributed to several additional works, including Genetic Engineering: A Christian Response; Kregel’s “Biobasics” series; and FamilyLife’s popular Simply Romantic Nights.
