I Want to Do Bad Things: Modern Interpretations of Evil
This volume was first published by Inter-Disciplinary Press in 2014. Far from the confines of black and white, evil today is an often complex and ever-evolving concept which can be found in all facets of life. This book offers a collection of views on the concepts of evil and wickedness from a variety of subjects, helping to show the range and scope of this universal concept. Chapters begin by exploring the concept of evil from a philosophical perspective, attempting to question the very nature of evil itself and what issues help to constitute the subject. They continue by discussing evil as it relates to monetary value in terms of capitalism, politics, and binary code. The last two sections focus on evil through the lens of literature and film, touching upon a wide range of characters from the villain-hero of the Elizabethan era to the modern day antihero featured in twenty-first century film.
Simon Episcopius' Doctrine of Original Sin
Simon Episcopius (1583-1643), who began his theological career as the protégé of Jacobus Arminius, led the Arminians at the Synod of Dort and was instrumental in guaranteeing Arminianism's survival. This book breaks new ground by clearly showing how, in the process of working out the implications of the theological trajectories which Arminius established, Episcopius introduced significant changes in his master's theology. It begins by demonstrating changes between Episcopius' early theological works and Arminius' writings, and then even greater changes in his mature theological work, Institutiones Theologicæ. It defends the idea that Arminianism represented a pre-Calvinist movement within the Netherlands, which not only rejected Genevan predestination, but also intentionally moved away from Reformed Scholasticism. This book is useful for seminars in early Arminian theology and the Arminian controversy in the Netherlands.

The Orders of Nature and Grace
This extended study of Thomistic concepts in the work of Franciscus Junius (1545–1602) is the first English monograph on Junius’s theology in more than 40 years, and the first analysis of his use of Thomistic moral concepts. On a broad level, this project investigates the reception of Thomistic ideas in the early modern Reformed tradition. On a narrow level, this study contributes to an examination of Junius’s moral theology itself.
