4 Creations per Month
Every month I will create 4 pieces of content derived from my current research projects . It will be a combination of ANY four of these types of content: Dare to Think episode and Written Articles. The combination of these will vary based on what medium is appropriate to the content, but I will have four creations per month. All of this content will be free and available to the public. What does your patronage pay for?
These monthly creations are part of larger projects I‘m producing: scholarly articles for journal submission, books, and online courses. Higher level patronage will get free and/or discounted access to these products as they come available.

Goal Reward
Once I reach 40 patrons at any membership level, I will conduct my first Live Quarterly Q&A. The topic of discussion will be abortion from a libertarian perspective, and will be derived from my Dare to Think episodes on the topic. Members at the Patronage and Underwriter levels will get priority access and have their questions answered first.
NOTE: This will be the only quarterly Q&A that preview members will get an invitation to.

Current Projects
Podcast Series: Women, Christianity, and Libertarianism
Moving forward with the complementarian/egalitarian debate, I’m working on research, articles, and podcasts, concerning a Reformational (Dooyeweerdian) philosophical view of individual identity and social anthropology.
Paper for Peer Review: Abortion
As some of you may know, I was recently in a debate with libertarian theorist and economist, Dr. Walter Block. We debated his theory of evictionism as a libertarian approach to abortion. I will continue work on a formal paper for peer review which includes the concepts of fetal self-ownership, child’s and parent’s rights (and responsibilities), rape, and differentiating aggressive and non-aggressive abuse.
Mere Liberty Courses: Identity Seminar
Exploring a reformed view of identity through the Socratic method. The Socratic method is a time-tested of method of teaching critical thinking and critically exploring ideas. It also teaches self-awareness, self-control, and self-confidence with those who disagree with you.
