I like to tell people that the answer to most any theological, ethical, or political problem can be found in the pages of Richard Hooker. And I’m only half-joking. Of course, I know that this is a common affliction of Ph.D students and ex-Ph.D students, who have spent too long studying one figure, but I hope you will read Hooker for yourself and see what I mean. I will eventually be using this page to host a number of resources for getting to know Hooker and Hooker scholarship.

I have a book forthcoming that seeks to offer a general introduction to Richard Hooker for evangelicals, Reformed folks, and everybody, really, Richard Hooker: A Companion to His Life and Work (Cascade). I have another book forthcoming from Eerdmans, based on my dissertation, and am editing a volume of Hooker essays for Vandenhoeck and Ruprecht. See a full list of my publications on Hooker at my Publications page.
