Jon received his PhD in Theology (History of Christianity) from Fordham University (2015). At UP, he has taught Engaging Ultimate Questions (our introduction to theology) as well as Biblical Texts, Race and Ethnicity in Ancient Christianity, Violence in Ancient Christianity, and Byzantine Christianity.
