fides quaerens intellectum

Bryce E. RichHi, I'm Bryce. Among my various identities, I'm a PhD in Theology minted at the University of Chicago.

My specializations include historical theology of the late-antique and medieval periods, queer theory and theologies, and modern religious thought.

I've written a book called Gender Essentialism and Orthodoxy: Beyond Male and Female and have several essays in edited volumes listed in my CV.

My research interests include theological anthropology, twentieth-century theologians of the Russian diaspora, and sacramentology. 

As a theologian, I work in each of these areas to enrich the life of the Church. As a scholar in the Chicago tradition, I write for multiple publics, building bridges across society's many divides. As a teacher, I help my students explore a variety of theological viewpoints, challenging them to push the limits of their thinking and to find their own theological voices.

Over the past decade, I've participated in six conferences on Orthodoxy and sexuality in Finland, Norway, and England. Several of my presentations are found in the Occasional Posts section.

Wherever I may currently be living, I am undoubtedly caring for a community cat colony.
