Areas of research include Christian anthropology, Christology, Trinitarian theology, and a special interest in the relationship between science and theology, specifically in the fields of neuroscience and quantum physics.
I am excited to have a book, The Heart of Rahner, coming out this spring and an article titled, “Karl Rahner and
Keiji Nishitani: A Response to Nihility,†coming out in the 2008 volume of Buddhist Christian Studies.
Having spent a number of years in ministry in a variety of settings, I am delighted to be teaching at IPS working
with students who are preparing for various types of ministry in parishes, non-profit organizations, healthcare,
retreat centers, etc. Theology comes alive when it informs and is informed by our everyday life experience.
