About Timothy R. Gabrielli 

Timothy R. Gabrielli is the first Gudorf Chair in Catholic Intellectual Traditions. Gabrielli received his doctorate in theology in 2014 and his master’s degree in theological studies in 2011 — both with honors and both from the University of Dayton. He also holds a bachelor’s in English literature and theology from the University of Scranton in Pennsylvania. His research investigates the modern history of Catholic sacramental theology and practice, propelled by a fundamental conviction that the resources of the tradition can speak to our contemporary questions.

His first book, “Confirmation: How a Sacrament of God’s Grace Became All About Us” offers a history of the theology and practice of Confirmation in the 20th century United States. His second, “One in Christ: Virgil Michel, Louis-Marie Chauvet, and Mystical Body Theology” revisits mystical body of Christ theology.
