BRAD IS HEAD LIBRARIAN AT ARCHIBALD LIBRARY
Biography
Brad is a prairie boy,
born and raised in Manitoba, though he has lived and studied in all four
western provinces. Having worked in the Archibald Library since 2001, he likes
the diversity that his job brings; from book selection and collecting statistics
to managing a budget, changing light bulbs, and sorting books, no two days are
ever the same in the library. He enjoys helping students learn, whether it's
the history of Christianity, how to find information in the library, or doing
better research. Brad is also grateful for the opportunity to be actively
involved in the life of a local church. He's an avid fan of hockey and football
(go Jets and Bombers), and enjoys cycling and canoeing.
Research
Interests
Brad's primary research
interests relate to the history of Christian life and thought. He has studied
the ways Jonathan Edwards's writings on revival were used by both supporters
and detractors of the Toronto Blessing. He also has an interest in the various
ways Christians responded to the aftermath of Constantine's conversion.
