The Rev. Dr. Chris Corbin is editor-in-chief for Earth & Altar. Growing up in Florida as the son of a United Methodist minister, he attended Florida Southern College, Yale Divinity School, and Vanderbilt University. He currently lives in Oshkosh, WI with his wife, Portia and five kids (two of the human variety and three of the cat kind). Chris is rector of Trinity Episcopal Church, Oshkosh, WI. His book, which has the dubious honor of the longest title in the Routledge Studies in Romanticism, is The Evangelical Party and Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s Return to the Church of England. Beyond this, Chris spends far too much time drawing cartoon versions of saints. He likes to think of himself as the Episcopal Church’s Ron Swanson, what with his woodworking and avoiding small talk.
