“The gospel is not the mystery of incomprehensible darkness but the mystery of incomprehensible light. It is not that we see so little of what God has done that we are puzzled, but that in the light of God’s revelation in Christ we see so much of what God has done that we are dazzled.” —Robert McAfee Brown
The more I study and teach theology, the more I see that theology must be practiced with love, gratitude, joy, and wonder. This lesson is something that I strive to instill in students as I assist them in the ongoing pursuit of thinking and living in a Christian way in the contemporary world. My teaching and research focuses on Christian doctrine and ethics. Other interests include traditional and contemporary understandings of divine attributes, the interrelationship between systematic and pastoral theology, and teaching theology within the setting of the liberal arts, with particular attention to theological themes in modern literature. In addition to an edited volume, I am currently writing a book on divine and human patience.
