The Bleak Midwinter.

This month, the Washington University Jurisprudence Rev. is publishing my essay, A Sermon on the Law: The Jurisprudence of Love. It's an expansive, inclusive, Biblical call to lawyers and lawmakers to root law & policy in the divine dignity of all people.

This was our panel today at #aals2023 for the Associate Dean section. It was an honor to learn from Dr. Nickey Woods, Deepika Sharma, and Chalak Richards. We discussed learning and motivation theory, and I presented strategies for teaching with intrinsic motivations that promote mastery and personal formation (not just extrinsic motivations of grades and competition). I always welcome opportunities to bring clinical moves to the doctrinal crowds.
