I'm a happily married father of two and a professor of Old Testament at Briercrest Seminary in Saskatchewan, Canada.
I am a Christian - with regard to grace, Augustinian; with regard to faith and the manner of one's union with Christ, Kierkegaardian; with regard to ecclesiology, very interested in Anglicanism; with regard to biblical interpretation, typological; "postmodern" in philosophical accent.
Augustine; Calvin; John Owen; Jonathan Edwards; Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, and Heiddegger; surrealism; myth theory; and of course the Bible, especially the Psalms, Isaiah, and Hebrews
Interests . . .
Hiking in the mountains, ping-pong, video games, Semitic languages (especially Hebrew and Arabic), creative writing, tickling my kids, watching the Saskatchewan sky, and myth, whether ancient or modern
Favorite reading
George MacDonald, Tolkein, and Lewis (Space Trilogy, Till We Have Faces); Gene Wolfe; G. M. Hopkins, Emily Dickinson, T. S. Eliot; Dostoyevski, Flannery O'Connor
Favorite Listening
J. S. Bach; Mahler (Symphonies 1-6, 9-10); Vaugh Williams; Bruce Cockburn, Sam Phillips, Trent Reznor, Bob Dylan
