I currently serve as Chair of the Humanities Department at Villanova University, where I have taught since 1997.  This was a homecoming for me, as I had been an undergraduate there before doctoral study at the Divinity School of the University of Chicago. I am the author of Constructing Antichrist: Paul, Biblical Commentary, and the Development of Doctrine in the Early Middle Ages and Church History: Faith Handed On, along with articles appearing in journals such as Modern Theology, Theological Studies, Franciscan Studies, and the Heythrop Journal.  My recent work on the 20th-century ressourcement theologian Henri de Lubac will appear in Reading Scripture as a Political Act and the T&T Clark Companion to Henri de Lubac, and I am working on a book on Saint Bonaventure’s Collationes in Hexaëmeron, which I will complete when I am released from my obligations as chair. I live in Media, PA with my wife Bridget, a ceramic artist, and our three teenage daughters.
