Our Mission:
Religion for Breakfast believes everyone should know a little bit more about religion. Religion touches every aspect of human civilization—our art, politics, history, and culture. But for something that is so important to human history, how much do we really know about religion?

In order to navigate the pluralism and complexity of the 21st-century religious landscape, Religion for Breakfast strives to boost our religious literacy by producing high-quality educational videos on a variety of religious studies topics. Topics range from ancient Christianity and Shinto to modern religious theory and pop culture.

We handle each topic with the utmost respect, recognizing that discussions about religion often evoke powerful emotions and opinions. This, however, proves the vital importance of religious literacy! If we care so much about this topic, we'd better know something about it! To that end, we invite you to pledge financial support for Religion for Breakfast. With your help, we can improve the public understanding of religion.

Who am I?
Hi! I'm Dr. Andrew Henry. I earned my PhD in religious studies from Boston University in 2020. I haven't always studied religious studies, though; I was originally trained as an ancient historian and archaeologist of the ancient Mediterranean. Before my graduate studies, I worked at the University of Pennsylvania's Museum of Archaeology in their Babylonian artifacts section, and I also excavated in Greece and Cyprus. But I fell in love with the academic study of religion and focused my research on the religions of the late antique Greco-Roman world.

I see religion as one of the most fascinating facets of our species, and I truly believe we can improve society by knowing a little bit more about religion and how to recognize its impacts. Religion for Breakfast is not affiliated with any particular religious practice and aims to elevate the secular, non-sectarian study of religion.
