He is one of six children, Fred, Donald, Anna Mary, Daniel and Myron, born to Clarence and Estella Augsburger. His brother Myron is a prominent Mennonite Church author, evangelist, and theologian.[citation needed]
Augsburger writes on Christian subjects and joined the School of Theology at Fuller Theological Seminary in 1990 as the Professor of Pastoral Care and Counseling. Augsburger is a minister of the Mennonite and a diplomate of the American Association of Pastoral Counselors. Although all of Augsburger's works revolve around the subject of Christianity, some also cover dealing with hatred, prejudice, and violence, as well as being a forgiving person.[1]
