oh no, if I had known that the podcast suite could make me sound and *look* so professional, I could have stopped fretting over content a long time ago!

Writing about God's perseverance and our preservation, how is your Friday going

I really enjoyed the conversation with Stephen Morrison on my recent book #AfterMethod! Listen to us talk about theology, method, design, predestination, and many other things... youtu.be/jDM4wUM8CzA

will be recording three podcasts on two completely disjunct areas of expertise within 24 hours - and then i think i'll need the remainder of reading week to recover from that

Do you have thoughts, concerns, hot takes on my book #AfterMethod? Have you even been engaging it critically or constructively for your own work? Submit a proposal for the #AARSBL panel co-sponsored by QueerStudiesInReligion and ReformedTheology&History! tinyurl.com/4cpfcvas

"There is no right cage." (Jack Halberstam)

Good display @hannareichel.bsky.social

Being interviewed live by Lee Hinson-Hasty from the Presbyterian Foundation's "Leading Theologically" - starting in a few minutes: fb.me/e/18ecAeexi (Tue November 7th at 1 p.m.) @ptseminary #LeadingTheologically #PresbyterianFoundation #AfterMethod

"What if we understood theology to be an exercise in design and redesign in excessive commitment to reality, in stubborn solidarity with it, and indecent honesty about it? Grace truly might be that demanding." #AfterMethod wjkbooks.com/Products/06642

"Any hermeneutic comes with its own hermetics. In this sense, all theories are not merely falsifiable, but outright false—even though they are false in different ways." #AfterMethod wjkbooks.com/Products/066...

"The substance of epistemology is anthropology, but the substance of anthropology is soteriology, hamartiology, eschatology, and at the end of the day Christology." #AfterMethod wjkbooks.com/Products/066...

"God, we proclaim, can transform the cross into a tree of life, but maybe not even God can prevent that our theologies of the cross end up killing one another." #AfterMethod wjkbooks.com/Products/06642

had several really lovely conversations today! but also arrived at the workshop just to find that i hadn't put my laptop into my backpack, a couple of hours later arrived at my home just to find that i hadn't put my backpack into my car and i think i am ready for that sabbatical now thank you

"Method, then, does not pertain to the locus of soteriology, but to the ongoing discernment of ethics. And here, it makes all the difference." #AfterMethod wjkbooks.com/Products/066...

"The proof of the pudding is in the eating, the proof of the sword is in the cutting, and the proof of the plowshare is in the plowing. What would be the proof of theology?" #AfterMethod wjkbooks.com/Products/06642

"What is the truth of a blade? You could stick it on a handle and use it as a sword. Or you could stick it on a moldboard and use it as a plowshare. Which is the adequate option? And how do we know?" #AfterMethod wjkbooks.com/Products/06642

"There are many rainbow-painted anti-homeless benches in theology." #AfterMethod wjkbooks.com/Products/06642

Discworld QOTD, from Witches Abroad “Progress just means bad things happen faster.”

"Whether God does or does not need better theology, we certainly do." #AfterMethod wjkbooks.com/Products/06642

My lovely colleagues threw me a book launch party and here I am in the picture about to eat my words... #afterMethod #PubDate

It. Is. Real. #AfterMethod

Where does the metaphysical buck stop?

"The problem with the dogmatic approach does not start where it gets God’s truth wrong. Even and especially where theology gets it right, convinced of its possession of the truth, it turns the truth of God into an idol." #AfterMethod wjkbooks.com/Products/066...

"How not to do theology might at this point be relatively easier to ascertain than how to do theology." #AfterMethod

they: ok, so the goal is to make people restive, off kilter, and aggravated, but also for them to feel bad about it designer: on it

"Banning heretics or giving them “a room of their own” in a specially conceived sub-field may just be two different ways of putting them into a box, even if it now is a broom closet instead of a coffin." #AfterMethod wjkbooks.com/Products/066...

"All theological method can be understood as damage management strategies of whatever can be diagnosed as “bad theology” by the epistemological lights of the times." #AfterMethod wjkbooks.com/Products/066...

What is theology about? God, theologians will typically maintain in one variation or another. Looking at theological discourse, one might however get the impression that the main topic of theology is—theology itself." #AfterMethod wjkbooks.com/Products/066...

"If God is real, and if this is God’s world, these divergent and often conflicting fields can only be different responses to that same reality, different testimonies to it. At worst: mutual misunderstandings. At best: a division of labor." #AfterMethod wjkbooks.com/Products/066...

my problem is that every time i have to take the "are you a robot" test i want to argue with the algorithm that vespas are *not* motorcycles

Got to preach today ❤️‍🔥 And even though it was on one of my favorite passages, Gen 32:22-32, the text completely surprised me during prep. Scripture is really amazing and wide.

"This book, then, presents my deliberate refusal to understand the distinctions and divisions that all sides have tried to teach me for so long. I have given up trying to understand them. In fact, I no longer desire to understand them." #AfterMethod wjkbooks.com/Products/066...

“In the midst of life, we are in death. Yet in the midst of death, we are in life.” This kind of faith is something that Sonia Waters did not only talk about in the classroom, but embodied with her life, and kept teaching us through her illness, dying, and death.

i really miss the other site's ability to do polls #onhere

"The professional theologian does not own theology. The professional theologian is merely the person who comes late to a conversation that is already going on." #AfterMethod wjkbooks.com/Products/066...

"After Method diagnoses, undoes, and transcends some of the deepest divisions in the field of theology today." - Ted A. Smith wjkbooks.com/Products/066... #aftermethod

"This book accomplishes the seemingly impossible: it makes Barthians want to read #QueerTheology, and it makes queer theologians want to read #Barth." - Vincent Lloyd wjkbooks.com/Products/066... #aftermethod

"Hanna Reichel has written the best book on theological method in a generation" (Vincent Lloyd) www.wjkbooks.com/Products/066... #aftermethod

ok friends, my book is coming out ONE MONTH FROM NOW. for the coming weeks, this account will be engaging in shameless though embarrassed self-promotion. consider yourself warned & mute me now: i'll be tweeting from the endorsements & own fav quotes from the book itself

I am already utterly behind on the semester that has just started, am swamped with meetings, and have several hard deadlines in the coming weeks. So naturally, I am concocting a new book proposal.

Blown away today by the generous endorsements colleagues have given my book. If no one else reads it but only half of them mean half of what they say, then my labor has been well worth it. wjkbooks.com/Products/066...
