정통장로교회

정통장로교회(Orthodox Presbyterian Church, OPC)는 미국 북부지역에 기반을 둔 신앙적 장로교교단이다.  미국 북장로교(United States of America in the United States of America, PCUSA)에 소속되었는데 1930년대 근본주의와 현대주의 논쟁 시기에 현대신학을 강하게 반대한 웨스트민스터신학교의  존 그레섬 메이천과 같은 회원들에 의해 1936년 창립되었다. 1929년 자유주의 신학에 대해 관대했던 프린스턴 신학교에서 나온 웨스트민스터신학교가 설립되고 1933년 장로교 해외독립선교부(Independent Board for Presbyterian Foreign Missions)가 만들어지면서 정통장로교회가 세워지게 되었다. 규모에 비해 복음주의에서 영향력이 크다.
