About Christopher Smith, OP

Mr. Christopher Smith, OP was born and raised in Northern Michigan.  After graduating high school, he joined the United States Navy and had the honor of serving his country for almost 21 years.  He retired from active duty in March 2010 and now works as a cybersecurity consultant for the Department of Defense.  Christopher, his wife, and their two children live near Baltimore, Maryland.

Christopher earned a BA degree in Philosophy and Religious Studies from Chaminade University in Honolulu, Hawaii in 2005 and a MA degree in Theology (AOC: Moral Theology) from St. Mary's Seminary and University in Baltimore, Maryland in 2010. In June 2007, he was received into the Dominican Order as a member of the Immaculate Conception Chapter of Third Order Dominicans located at the Dominican House of Studies in Washington D.C.

When he is not blogging, Christopher is involved in several ministries in his parish, including: RCIA catechist, adult formation leader, and parish council.  He also conducts workshops on a variety of theological subjects.  Some of Christopher’s favorite research topics include: apologetics, theodicy, just war theory, church/state relations, and public theology.  He also enjoys digital photography, soccer, reading, and playing on his drum set.

In addition to writing for AC, you can find Christopher on his blog Christopher's Apologies.  He also hangs out on Twitter, Facebook, Google+, and YouTube.
