I loved this interview with mathematician and professor Steven Strogatz, which asks deep questions about what it means to be human. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

I came across this 2019 essay by Elesha Coffman in UChicago Divinity’s Sightings, asking if we’ll continue to forget women like Rachel Held Evans in our telling of American religious history. I’m hoping that my book is part of the remembering.

You really have to read this to believe it. Jon Malesic finds convincing evidence of an AI author finding real success in a genre one might hope would be resistant to slop: spiritual essays in small, serious Christian magazines.

I had my first laptop-free class yesterday and it was great! Students were on board!
