Her current project, Cultural Christians in the Early Church, is under with contract with Zondervan Publishers.

She received her B.A. in English from Princeton University and her Ph.D in English from Emory University. She is the author of four books: The Incarnational Art of Flannery O’Connor, Prophets of the Posthuman: American Fiction and the Ethics of Personhood, Beyond the Story: American Literary Fiction and the Limits of Materialism, and The Flourishing Teacher: Vocational Renewal for a Sacred Profession.
