I’m SO excited to be partnering with The Religion Department next month with a guest lecture on a Supreme Court case that I think is just as relevant today as it was 50 years ago! Come hang out with me on December 3!

The CFP for the AAR-Southeast 2026 meeting at Furman University in Greenville, SC is due on October 1! Find the CFP at relse.org, and consider submitting to the Religions in America section!

Meeting is March 6-8 - hope to see your proposals!! Reach out with any questions!

My interview with @mccutcheonsays.bsky.social about the 2nd edition of Religion and the Domestication of Dissent is out! We chat about the book but more importantly we talk about the state of the field (spoiler: bleak) and what to do from the all-too-late place we're in now.

Looking forward to this conversation taking place on Wednesday! It’s beyond time we start rethinking what graduate education in religious studies looks like if we hope to have a future as a field. Tune in, and register here: aarweb.org/event/future...

In my PhD Candidate era 🥂📚✨

End of year awards ceremony was a success, and I even took home the department’s teaching award! When they started reading student evaluations in the announcement, I was really hoping for my two favorite ones to make an appearance. Oh Gen Z, how I adore you 🫶💖

I think Disco loves when new books arrive just as much as I do 🪩💖📚

On my way to San Diego for AAR! Drop by my presentation on Saturday 12:30pm-2:30pm in the Hilton Bayfront Aqua 300 to hear about digital archives and computational analysis in my version of that vine that goes “WHY are you running?!”

Had a blast talking w/ Leslie Dorrough Smith and Steven Ramey about their amazing new textbook! If you’re teaching World Religions anytime soon, get your hands on this book! It is so importantly different from other WR books!

Excited to see this out! I wrote the first version several years and many political moments ago, but that almost makes the case study even more interesting. Find my article, as well as the whole special issue “Belief, Reconsidered” at the Implicit Religion site here: journal.equinoxpub.com/IR/index

Excited to be presenting at NAASR 2023 on Friday alongside these awesome people! See you in San Antonio!
