Teaching
A Professor of Religion and Art at TCU, I teach at the intersection of art, religion, and innovation, where the deepest questions of meaning and making live. My classrooms are studios of thought - spaces where students wrestle with what it means to be embodied, creative, and alive amidst the digital sublime. I want students to think with their hands, to see ideas as material, and to risk making something that might fail beautifully. Together we explore how spirit, imagination, and craft might resist the flattening pressures of efficiency and optimization.
Selected Courses
DiGital Religion
Explores how digital technology and artificial intelligence are reshaping religious imagination, practice, and the meaning of being human in a post-analog world.
ReLigion & Art
Examines how artists and religious traditions alike give form to the invisible - tracing how matter, image, and ritual reveal the sacred through creative expression.
The death of god & The End of Art
Investigates the modern crisis of meaning through theology and aesthetics, asking what art becomes when transcendence collapses and humanity creates its own gods.
