I do things from time to time that are not academic philosophy. Here are some such!
In January I published a piece in Mere Orthodoxy about why I live without a smartphone and how you can, too. This piece was based on a public lecture I gave in Buffalo, NY, which was part of the Nickel City Forum speaker series. The audio is available here.
I have been a recurring guest on the Nickel City Forum podcast. Most recently I discussed different philosophies of the good life:
10/17/2025 – Introducing The Good Life
11/10/2025 – The Pleasant Life
11/11/2025 – The Virtuous Life
12/1/2025 – The Communal Life
12/2/2025 – The Humanitarian Life
11/17/2026 – The Devout Life
In 2025, I wrote for Mere Orthodoxy about how religious doubt and religious faith are compatible.
I have written and recorded an album titled ‘Ghosts & Spirits’ based on C.S. Lewis’s fable The Great Divorce. You can stream it on Youtube or download it from Amazon.
In 2018 I gave a talk at Valparaiso University’s TEDx conference on the topic of Martin Luther’s model for social change.
Here’s why Little Women by Louisa May Alcott was resonating with me during the Covid-19 quarantine. (This was part of the ‘Q Reads’ series hosted by The Institute for Leadership & Service at Valparaiso University.)
