I am delighted to announce that my academic papers are now published on SSRN (Social Science Research Network), one of the world’s most widely recognized platforms for scholarly research and academic exchange.
This is a significant milestone. SSRN is not only a repository, it is an international hub where scholars, researchers, and institutions share their work across theology, biblical studies, law, humanities, and the social sciences. To have my research placed here means it can now be searched, downloaded, and cited by scholars around the globe.
The three papers now available on SSRN are:
From Primeval Rebellion to Cosmic Restoration Reading Genesis through the Apocalyptic Lens of 1 Enoch and Revelation
Theological And Historical Significance of the Book of Jubilees Ancient Context and Modern Relevance
Enoch And Jubilees In Dialogue With Contemporary Spiritual Manifestations
Each one explores the intersections of ancient biblical texts, theology, and living faith, particularly the insights I share with my late twin brother Darren.
Why SSRN matters:
Visibility: It puts my work directly in front of academics, universities, and journals who may not otherwise encounter it.
Credibility: SSRN is a trusted platform where serious scholars publish and engage.
Opportunity: This could open doors for future conferences, collaborations, and even publishing partnerships.
For me, this step is not just academic, it is deeply personal. Darren’s presence continues to guide me, and I believe Christ’s hand is on this journey. SSRN gives our work a respected platform, and I pray it helps it reach those who can see its value.
