Blog

My blog posts revolve around my interests and vocation as a historian:
  • the intersection of history and contemporary church life
  • the intersection of history and contemporary politics
  • serendipitous discoveries in archives or on research trips
  • publications and research projects 
  • upcoming conferences
  • speaking engagements

I also blog for two other organizations, the Canadian Baptist Historical Society and the Centre for Post-Christendom Studies.

The views expressed in these blogs represent the views of the authors, and not necessarily those of any organizations with which they are associated.
