I'm a lifelong reader and lifelong learner who loves discussing ideas with other people. Because I love learning, I also love teaching and writing. I'm a teacher with Kepler Education, the BibleMesh Institute, and Redemption Seminary. I have published two books, contributed to two more, and have written articles for Common Good, SALVO, Touchstone, and Consortium: A Journal of Classical Education. I post reguarly on Substack at The SoderBlurb: https://gregorysoderberg.substack.com/ ...more

Kepler Education

I’m excited to be part of the team at Kepler Education! Kepler is a new consortium of independent teachers offering online classes for students 7-12. Kepler offers a wide variety of courses in the classical Christian tradition, with an emphasis on the liberal arts. You can choose which teachers/classes fit your family’s needs and schedule. Although not a “school,” Kepler does offer credits towards Read more of this blog post »

Christian Human Rights by Samuel Moyn
Rate this book
Clear rating
Fascinating history! Although not a Christian himself, Moyn is honest with the evidence that it was Christian theologians, politicians and writers who advocated and implented the notion of "human rights" in the modern period. ...more

A Short Treatise on Political Power by John Ponet
Rate this book
Clear rating
John Ponet was a bishop in the English Reformation. John Adams praised his work. It is a neglected resource in recovering a substantive political theology. [Longer review forthcoming in The London Lyceum!]

Justly deemed a classic of Christian spirituality.

The Quest for Cosmic Justice by Thomas Sowell

Well-balanced perspectives. Sowell is a voice of reason and sanity. Things have only gotten worse since he wrote this.

I rarely give a book 5 stars, but this book earned it! Although it took me about a year to read it (not the book's fault, although it is hefty), it was a deeply researched and engaging journey. As one of the foremost scholars of late antiquity, Brown ...more

I rarely give a book 5 stars. Enough said. But, really, this is a treasure-trove of wonderful poetry! It clearly demonstrates that the Western poetic tradition is thoroughly Christian.

“We learn from the past, in order to live wisely in the present.”
Gregory Soderberg

“We learn from the past, in order to live wisely in the present.”
Gregory Soderberg

“Another real danger to young men is thoughtlessness and lack of consideration. Lack of thought is one simple reason why thousands of souls are cast away forever. Men will not consider,-will not look forward,-will not look around them,-will not reflect on the end of their present course, and the sure consequences of their present ways,-and awake at last to find they are damned for lack of thinking.”
J.C. Ryle

“Be very sure of this,-people never reject the Bible because they cannot understand it. They understand it only too well; they understand that it condemns their own behavior; they understand that it witnesses against their own sins, and summons them to judgment.”
J.C. Ryle

“Christians were never meant to be normal. We’ve always been holy troublemakers, we’ve always been creators of uncertainty, agents of dimension that’s incompatible with the status quo; we do not accept the world as it is, but we insist on the world becoming the way that God wants it to be. And the Kingdom of God is different from the patterns of this world.”
Jacques Ellul

“Christianity has from its beginning portrayed itself as a gospel of peace, a way of reconciliation (with God, with other creatures), and a new model of human community, offering the 'peace which passes understanding' to a world enmeshed in sin and violence. (1)”
David Bentley Hart
