So many fond memories in St Andrews with my family.

It was a privilege to have my PhD office only a 5-minute walk away from this castle and to see it nearly every day for the 2.5 years we lived in St Andrews.

William Wilberforce: "God Almighty has set before me two great objects, the suppression of the slave trade and the reformation of manners." (October 1787)

Excited for this publication to be released next month: Audience and Reception in the Early Modern Period, including my chapter, "'Sedicious' Sermons: Preaching, Politics, and Provocation in Reformation England, 1540–1570" routledge.com/Audience-and-R…

I'm grateful for the gracious and favorable review by Lucy Wooding Oxford History in EHR of my monograph, "Reformation of the Commonwealth: Thomas Becon and the Politics of Evangelical Change in Tudor England" published by @V_R_Tweets. academic.oup.com/ehr/advance-ar…

Eager to see this new volume in print soon, including my chapter, "'Sedicious' sermons: Preaching, Politics, and Provocation in Reformation England."

Great news about University of St Andrews! Grateful and proud to be a PhD alumnus of St Andrews History. My time there with my family was certainly a highlight of both our family life and my career.

Today the Church remembers Lancelot Andrewes, chaplain to Archbishop Whitgift, Bishop of Winchester, and the chief of the Westminster Translators of the King James Bible [Prints 010/001, published 1632]

This reminds me of the time of eating dinner at Old Course Hotel hosted by St Andrews History. Gorgeous view and great memories.

Very pleased to see this volume now available from Routledge History, Heritage Studies & Archaeology: Audience and Reception in the Early Modern Period, including my chapter on sermons in Reformation England.

Today the Church remembers Martin Luther, Protestant Reformer and influential hymn writer. Hand-coloured title page for the third edition of Luther's Bible, printed by Hans Lufft in 1536 [A13.6/L97]

Epiphany is the feast when we remember the visit of the Magi (or the three Kings) to the infant Christ. The moment is represented here in Albrecht Dürer’s sumptuous 1511 woodcut where we can see their gifts reimagined as Renaissance treasures. [Prints 050.013]

I'm pleased to have just received my contributor's copy of this new volume from Routledge History, Heritage Studies & Archaeology to which I contributed a chapter. It was a joy to have contributed to this excellent and highly recommended volume on audiences and reception in the early modern world.

No matter how small or mundane or menial, if we seek to honor God in our work and depend on him to establish our labors, we engage, as Brian Hanson reminds us, in sacred work. desiringgod.org/articles/the-s…
