Episode: Ryan O'Dowd is the rare combination of Anglican Priest and scholar of the wisdom literature (though he agrees with Will Kynes's critique of the wisdom genre). In this episode, Dru and Ryan talk about his recent commentary on Proverbs in the Story of God series, his life as a pastor-scholar, and how being an academic is like being a model.
Guest: Ryan O'Dowd is a pastor of Bread of Life Anglican Church of Ithaca, New York, and senior fellow at Chesterton House, Cornell University. His teaching and research interests include biblical law, wisdom, and poetry, as well as Christian theological approaches to ethics, work, and vocation. Ryan holds the rank of Lieutenant Colonel in the U.S. Air Force Reserve with 30 years of combined service in Active Duty and Reserve status. His books include The Wisdom of Torah: Epistemology in Deuteronomy and the Wisdom Literature (Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht, 2009); Old Testament Wisdom Literature: A Theological Introduction, with Craig Bartholomew (Apollos, 2011); and Proverbs (The Story of God Bible Commentary; Zondervan 2017).
