Nicholas Scott Blakely recently earned his PhD in Theology and Ethics from Fuller Theological Seminary, where he worked with Richard Mouw and Tommy Givens. He is deeply committed to interreligious relations, especially between Christians and Jews. He currently leads a national initiative, supported by leadership from Wheaton College, convening Evangelical leaders to foster a theological reexamination of Evangelical views on Jews and Judaism and is an Affiliate Assistant Professor at Fuller.

Nick’s research also extends to Islamophobia, antisemitism, the intersection of ecology and religion, and the ways religious convictions shape civic and political life. Through both teaching and public scholarship, he seeks to bridge the gap between academic theology and the everyday ethical challenges communities face.

Nick holds a MA in Theological Studies from Princeton Theological Seminary and a BA in Theology from Azusa Pacific University. Based in Seattle, he lives with his wife, Ellen, and their daughter, Denny.
