Short Biography

I'm a biblical scholar teaching in the liberal arts college of a church-affiliated university.

Long Biography

I'm a biblical scholar working primarily on aesthetic/literary study of Hebrew narrative and study of the use, influence, and impact of the Hebrew Bible (Christian Old Testament), especially the book of Genesis. I teach in the liberal arts college of a church-affiliated university. At Pepperdine, all undergraduates are required to take three religion courses. One of those, "The History and Religion of [Ancient] Israel," is my bread-and-butter course.
