Welcome to the personal website and blog of Chris Gehrz, professor of history at Bethel University in St. Paul, Minnesota and author of Charles Lindbergh: A Religious Biography of America’s Most Infamous Pilot (Eerdmans, 2021).


Both here and via a Substack newsletter, I write about Christianity, history, education, and their intersections. I also record podcasts, speak at churches and colleges, and lead historical tours in Europe. To learn more, you can follow me on Facebook or Twitter, or e-mail me.
Oh, and why “The Pietist Schoolman“? Or why a Caravaggio painting at the top of this page?
I’m glad you asked: click the links to learn more!
