Dr. Michael Sirilla is a Professor of Theology at the Department of Theology, Franciscan University of Steubenville. He holds a Ph.D. in Systematic Theology from The Catholic University of America (2008), where his dissertation focused on St. Thomas Aquinas's theology of the episcopacy in his commentaries on the Pastoral Epistles, under the direction of Fr. Joseph Komonchak. His minor concentrations included historical theology and philosophy.
His research interests center on the theology of St. Thomas Aquinas, particularly in areas like episcopal authority, diaconate theology, and biblical exegesis. He has published extensively on Aquinas's theological methodologies, including works analyzing the role of scripture in Aquinas's preaching and the moral dimensions of papal correction. His scholarship bridges medieval theology with contemporary ecclesiological questions.
Recent publications include studies on Aquinas's theology of the diaconate (2021), the role of scripture in Aquinas's theological framework (2021), and the purposes of his biblical commentaries (2017). His work consistently engages with patristic traditions and scholastic methods to illuminate modern theological debates.
