Professor
Prof. Coomber's teaching focuses on the intersections that develop between Bible and culture, shaping societal aspects ranging from politics to artistic expression. His primary research and publication focus is on Bible and economics, through which he explores how biblical texts challenging systemic poverty and imperialism might provide tools for confronting these challenges in our time.
Prof. Coomber has studied and taught in England, Canada, Japan, and India. He enjoys sharing his love of travel with students through an overseas course entitled "Genocide, Resistance, 和纳粹欧洲的上帝," which explores the theological questions raised by anti-fascist resistance groups and their selfless acts of service to their persecuted neighbors during the Second World War.
他是圣公会的牧师, has a graduate-level background in Buddhist Studies and Sanskrit, and bridges his academic life and human-rights concerns by serving as a co-director at The 圣经与社会正义中心和图书馆.
Prof. Coomber's personal interests include playing old-time mandolin and banjo, 木工, 酿造啤酒, 与家人共度时光, and supporting his favorite soccer team: Sheffield Wednesday F.C.
