RESTORED · THEOLOGY FOR THE HUMAN CONDITION
Support Independent Theological Research
Rigorous theological scholarship can serve both the academy and the wider church. Your voluntary support helps sustain independent research and the public sharing of theological work concerned with human suffering, disordered desire, and the possibility of restoration.
The Research
My doctoral research, Disordered Desire and the Recovery of the Self: A Constructive Theological Response to Trauma and Addiction, develops an integrative theological framework that brings theological anthropology, embodied desire, habit formation, human narrative, and neurobiological science into conversation. It explores how practices of recovery and restoration might be understood within an ecclesial and liturgical context.
Through Restored, I seek to make theological essays, research developments, and scholarly resources available to readers beyond formal academic settings.
