Dr. Brian R. Bolt is a professor of kinesiology and men's golf coach at Calvin College in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Bolt's academic work focuses on philosophy, psychology, and skill acquisition in kinesiology and sport. He serves as an academic mentor for students in sport management, physical education teaching, and coaching. On the golf course, his team celebrated its first-ever MIAA title in 2010 and first trip to the NCAA Division III Championships in 2011. Since then, they've added two more titles (2013, 2017) and more qualifications for Division III national tournaments. Bolt serves as the co-director of the Sport and Christianity Group which recently authored "A Declaration on Sport and the Christian Life." Bolt's research and leadership connecting sport and Christianity have made him a sought-after voice, both as speaker and writer, in his local community and internationally.
