Driggers specializes in historically informed narrative criticism of the Gospel of Mark, examining its contributions to Christian theology and spirituality. His pedagogical approach emphasizes close textual analysis while engaging historical contexts, theological traditions, and diverse contemporary perspectives—including African American, womanist, feminist, and LGBTQIA+ interpretations—to foster communal interpretation practices that support spiritual and cross-cultural formation. As a teaching theologian, he connects biblical studies with intellectual growth and Christian discipleship.
Through his role as Associate Dean of Academic Programs, Driggers collaborates with seminary leadership to develop curriculum and enhance student experience. He contributes to Working Preacher, an online resource for church leaders, and remains active in local church preaching and teaching. His scholarly work bridges academic biblical studies with practical theological application, particularly in Gospel interpretation and spiritual formation.
