My name is James Quinby. I am a husband, father of nine, grandfather of two, diaconal candidate, lay catechist, ham radio op, and backyard naturalist.
My theological interests are the spirituality of the desert fathers and mothers (Cassian and Evagrius in particular), catechesis, and evangelization. Other interests: René Girard, Charles Taylor, Augustine, and Aquinas.
This blog is a place to organize my occasional thoughts around those things. I don’t get into work-related stuff here; this is very much on purpose. Suffice it to say that I’ve spent close to 30 years in information technology. These days, I tend to focus more on people than technology.
I have a presence on the following, but I am not particularly active on any of them. To the extent that I publish anywhere online, it’s here.

I also hang around on Metafilter.
