Research and Writing

I'm in the process of revising a paper for presentation on Sunday at the Collge Theology Society conference in Mobile, Alabama. I've never presented at a "theology" conference, so it will be interesting to mingle as a historian. The paper features some research I did on Protestant evangelicals and the use of ancient Christianity to construct religious identity.

I met the session commentator, Daniel Van Slyke at the Conference on Faith and History meeting last October in Michigan. I'm also presenting alongside a good friend and mentor Mike McClymond, a professor at Saint Louis University. Mike's newest book, Familiar Stranger, just received a Christianity Today book award.
