Kathleen Gallagher Elkins (she/her) @katgelk.bsky.social · 19/05/2026This book was my very first acquisition when I started with @fortresspress.bsky.social and, even more importantly, it's an incredible book! Can't wait to see it in the real world. Congratulations @chancebonar.bsky.social! 092
Kathleen Gallagher Elkins (she/her) @katgelk.bsky.social · 03/04/2026Appropriate reading for Good Friday: the story of a crucified college. But like Holy Week, crucifixion is not the whole story (read to the end for @lerikscline.bsky.social's good word about why the work still matters) 072
Kathleen Gallagher Elkins (she/her) @katgelk.bsky.social · 03/04/2026Oh, that's kind of you to say <3 And I feel the same about the emotional survival! 020
Kathleen Gallagher Elkins (she/her) @katgelk.bsky.social · 02/04/2026Saving this to read tomorrow, since it seems oddly appropriate for Good Friday. Thanks for sharing this 111
Kathleen Gallagher Elkins (she/her) @katgelk.bsky.social · 06/03/2026Such important work. Is the list you've compiled public and available? 000
Kathleen Gallagher Elkins (she/her) @katgelk.bsky.social · 04/03/2026Rodney Sadler is a Bible prof at the seminary I attended (different campus, but still proud to see it!) 051
Kathleen Gallagher Elkins (she/her) @katgelk.bsky.social · 02/02/2026I believe that AI could be more creative than Harari though 010
Kathleen Gallagher Elkins (she/her) @katgelk.bsky.social · 02/02/2026It just doesn't focus a ton on Canaan/promised land (which surprised me I guess?!) - it's there, but not the major theme 120
Kathleen Gallagher Elkins (she/her) @katgelk.bsky.social · 02/02/2026Rabbi, my copy of the book just arrived and it's great. Having said that, I'm not sure it does exactly what you're looking for. The chapter on Naboth's vineyard is probably the closest (and imho is so so good) but there are a few pages (with relevant footnotes) in the appendix 020
Kathleen Gallagher Elkins (she/her) @katgelk.bsky.social · 29/01/2026Right - and Christians are good at ignoring those parts of history anyway! (I say, as a Christian) 130
Kathleen Gallagher Elkins (she/her) @katgelk.bsky.social · 29/01/2026Yes, exactly right. That's what I would anticipate (re "Jesus-y"), that Jesus is a big part of that off-ramp! 110
Kathleen Gallagher Elkins (she/her) @katgelk.bsky.social · 29/01/2026I just ordered (but haven't read, so can't say yet!) Reading the Bible on Turtle Island. It's published by IVP so will certainly be Jesus-y at times. But it might have something helpful? Would love to hear what resources you find for this. 110
Kathleen Gallagher Elkins (she/her) @katgelk.bsky.social · 16/01/2026This really is such an exciting project!! 061
Kathleen Gallagher Elkins (she/her) @katgelk.bsky.social · 15/01/2026A senior scholar in my field did this when I published an article as a junior scholar (one that I was nervous about!). I saved the email and look back at it regularly. It meant so much! 020

Kathleen Gallagher Elkins (she/her) @katgelk.bsky.social · 04/12/2025Love this analysis from Jen Kaalund. "Memory binds us together and helps us become who we aspire to be. But it only does this when we remember the real and complicated stories." 031
