His research examines the relationship between Jews and Christians in the United States in recent decades and the spectrum of Christian beliefs ranging from philo-Semitism to antisemitism underlying this relationship. 

His MA thesis examines relations between Neo-Conservative Catholic and Jewish thinkers in contemporary America. In his upcoming research, titled: Between Philo-Semitism and Antisemitism: The Image of Jews and the Influence of Judaism on the New Religious Right in America he wishes to investigate Judaism’s position in the political theology of conservative religious streams of the American “New Religious Right” at the turn of the twentieth century, as well as the participation of individual Jews in the movement.
