Originally from Los Angeles, John Barnes is a doctoral candidate in systematic theology at Fordham University. His primary research interests lie at the intersections of Black religion and culture, pneumatology and Christology. His forthcoming dissertation, “Like the Rushing of a Mighty Wind: Embodiment, Being and the Construction of a Black Diasporic Pneumatology,” engages notions of spirit as the point of departure to investigate how the Black musical tradition blurs the distinction between the sacred and secular. John attends St. Charles Borromeo Parish in Harlem.
