Dr. Jason N. Yuh is an Assistant Professor of Religion and Theology at Redeemer University. He holds a Ph.D. in New Testament and Early Christianity from the University of Toronto (2024), an M.Div. from Westminster Theological Seminary (2015), and a B.Sc. in Information Science and Technology from Drexel University (2005). His research focuses on New Testament texts and early Christian practices, employing interdisciplinary methods like neuroscience, ritual studies, and comparative religious analysis. He has published extensively on topics such as early Christian rituals, canonical interpretation, and identity construction.

Dr. Yuh’s doctoral dissertation, "The Dialectic of Tradition and Innovation in the Didache through Ritual," examines rituals like baptism, eucharist, and almsgiving in early Christian communities. His work bridges ancient texts with contemporary theoretical frameworks, emphasizing the interplay between tradition and innovation. He has also served as an ordained lead pastor for five years and previously worked in software development and product management, bringing diverse perspectives to his academic work.

His teaching spans courses like The Drama of Scripture, New Testament Studies, and Theological Interpretation of the Bible. Beyond academia, he prioritizes his role as a husband and father of three, guided by his faith in Christ’s sovereignty over all knowledge and practice.

Recent publications include analyses of the Didache’s communal identity through rituals, methodological approaches to comparing ancient texts, and examinations of Paul’s baptismal theology in Galatians. His edited volume *Kingdom Manifesto: Meditations on the Gospel of Matthew* (2021) further explores gospel theology from interdisciplinary angles.
