Spectrum Magazine, an Adventist publication, just reviewed my latest popular book. The review is generally very positive, and highlights what I hoped the book would achieve: high readiblity, positive theology, and an engaging introduction to books that many Bible readers are unaware of.
The Dutch Adventist Church creates a magazine, Contact, that goes to about 3000 people who are interested in the Bible. As some of these people have been receiving this magazine for quite a few years, the editors wanted to have a recurring theological column, meant for the long-time readers. This article should match the theme of the edition. […]

Last year the editors of Dialogue, a world-wide Adventist publication for college and university students, asked me to write an article on ‘Living the Christian Life in an Alien Culture.’ This topic might not have been my first choice, but as I was teaching a post-graduate module on 1 Peter, I saw some interesting exegetical […]
The Dutch Adventist Church has asked me to write a quarterly column running through the Fundamental Beliefs of the Adventist Church for their magazine. I generally try to discuss one or two of the fundamentals per quarter. This quarter I looked at the newest Adventist Fundamental, growing in Christ Click on the image to download.

This may be the weirdest thing I’ve ever done. I was asked to give the keynote at GAiN, with the topic: ’Re:formation, Re:volution.’ Thinking outside the box, I decided to talk about Luther’s Mönchkalb and papal-ass, and about Wes Anderson’s Fantastic Mr. Fox. Blending Monster Theory and Ecclesiology, accompanied with some close readings of Mr. Fox, I drew some—hopefully interesting—applications […]

This one is a bit surreal. I just received a Czech-language in the post, after some searching I discovered that it contained a translation of my article on metamodernism.

There I was, sitting on a plane to Israel, not knowing what to expect.

A while ago the editor of Adventnyt, the church magazine of the Danish Adventist Church, messaged me in some stress. He needed an article on divine providence, and he needed it now. Something about another author falling through at the very last moment. So, on a very hot Sunday afternoon in Galilee, I wrote an article on divine […]
Recently, an article by on the Guardian popped up on my facebook newsfeed, entitled Cloud Atlas ‘astonishingly different’ in US and UK editions. Just beneath that you could read ‘Academic discovers dramatically altered stretches of narrative while researching a paper on David Mitchell’s bestselling novel’. This immediately drew my attention as it is something close […]
Earlier this year, the Dutch Adventist church asked me to write a short booklet on biblical hermeneutics in Dutch. It was meant to be about 6000 words, easy to understand for any member, that will be distributed in Holland: one for each household. The timeframe was ridiculously short: writing, designing, printing and distributing within three weeks! […]
Spectrum Magazine asked me to review Reinder Bruinsma’s latest book Facing Doubt: A Book for Adventist Believers On the Margins. As I was reading and thinking about Bruinsma’s book, I decided that some of my musings would be worth a blog post.
The classicists in Leiden have their own quarterly magazine: Frons. Their Summer special on metamorphoses includes an article about Monsters that I wrote. I blogged an English variant of the same article recently on Angels and Apes, an often-more-than-weekly-blog, maintained by Megen de Bruin-Molé, a PhD researcher at Cardiff University.
The Dutch Adventist Church asked me to do a quarterly column running through the Fundamental Beliefs of the Adventist Church. I plan to discuss one or two of the fundamentals per quarter. As you might guess from the picture of the egg, this column discusses the Trinity and God the father. Click on the image to […]
