On the one hand, Zoom is great for making conferences accessible. On the other, it is an instrument of torture when the session I’m presenting in starts after 11pm here

Checking out the Galloway hoard exhibition today. My daughter has quite an interest in Vikings.

There’s a certain type of relief one feels when reading reviewer comments on a revise and resubmit, and realising a major issue is essentially a matter of clarity rather than the substance of the argument

Started the day on a zoom call with colleagues from around the world on the current book project. Now hiking with the kids enjoying the summer sunshine

More recent reading: Sensing Salvation in the Gospel of John by @jeanninemhanger.bsky.social (full review coming in RBL) (1/3)

Time to share some of things I’ve been reading lately. First up “Purity in the Gospel of John” by Wil Rogan. Following in the vein of ‘within Judaism’ readings, he seeks to read the theme of purity without assuming its rejection by John. 1/3

if you are considering journal submission (BibS) you may also enjoy a handy webpage to compare journal submission word limits, information which can be surprisingly hard to locate. xenos-theology.blogspot.com/2024/08/new-...

I enjoyed the circus that is #sblaar As always, it was great to meet new people, including some I’ve only known online previously. As well as catching up with friends I only see every few years when I make it over here

My daughter gave me a letter to open while I’m away. It is adorable

We’ve made it to San Diego for some relaxing before the fun begins. But for now, after 30 odd hours worth of this Monday that I’ve been awake for, I think it’s time for sleep

Getting ready for SBL - I think we complement each other well!
Getting in the zone for #sblaar24 with @cseglenieks.bsky.social. We couldn’t have found a more perfect couple’s outfit for us.

Thanks @andrewhwaller.com!
