Faith and Sports Conversation with Paul Putz

Since starting my work at Baylor I've had the opportunity to get to know Paul Putz and his work with the Faith and Sports Institute, and he is one of my favorite people to follow on Twitter @p_emory. This is just a continuation of conversations we've had about youth sports in particular.

Keep an eye out for his book coming in 2023.

Paul Putz serves as Assistant Director of the Faith & Sports Institute, where he helps to lead and develop online programming and curriculum as well as assisting with communications and strategic planning. Paul received his bachelor’s degree in secondary education from Grace University, where he played basketball. He went on to get a PhD in history from Baylor. He has over a decade of experience as an educator in the high school and college classroom and his research and writing has been featured at Christianity Today, Slate, National Public Radio, Religion News Service, and more. His first book, which explores the history of sports and Christianity in modern American culture, is under contract with Oxford University Press.
