Dr. Heilmann, would you be willing to share a PDF of this review?

Thanks Alexi!

One (major) step closer to PhDone! Today I successfully defended my dissertation, "Teaching the Gospel: Ancient Pedagogy and the Quest for 'Gospel Communities.'"

Seriously! Lincicum and Eubank plenty heavyweight on their own, of course!

wow! I had no idea all of them were retiring!!

"authors are not spokespersons for communities" I repeat to myself as I receive another round of feedback from my dissertation committee

Thanks Eli!

Main text allusion to interesting scholaship > endnote with author-date citation > bibliography with the damn title you wanted

they really make you work for it these days

I'm a bit late in announcing this online, but I got a job! I've accepted a position as Assistant Professor of Biblical and Religious Studies at Grove City College in Pennsylvania. Looking forward to the next stage!

your first two skeets really aptly capture your twitter presence

There should be a feature to mute someone’s reskeets but still see their actual posts

We’ve actually got to start using it if it’s going to become a reasonable Twitter alternative!

Taking the year off from SBL--Sophie says good luck writing your papers

Man, biblical studies twitter was what got me onto the platform. People talked about scholarship and ideas in accessible and inviting formats. If Bluesky recaptures any of that energy it will be a worthwhile enterprise

happy to be here folks. I’ll be as quiet on here as I was on the other place probably
