He’s the author of IRL – which is short for in real life – Finding Realness, Meaning, and Belonging in Our Digital Lives. He’s also the author of Faitheist, which is the first book of his that I read. Faitheist: How an Atheist Found Common Ground with the Religious. He’s written for multiple outlets, including The Guardian, the Atlantic, Pitchfork, Buzzfeed, et cetera. And he is formerly the founding executive director of the Yale humanist community and served as a Humanist Chaplain at Harvard University.
