Elizabeth L. Antus is a PhD candidate in systematic theology at the University of Notre Dame. Her dissertation will center around the topic of Christian self-love using Augustine of Hippo, Teresa of Ávila, and Sarah Coakley. Her interests include Christian theological anthropology, feminist and womanist theologies, Christian approaches to the question of suffering, disability studies, the TV show 30 Rock, and her dog, Jubilee.
Elizabeth Antus argues that an engagement with the work of best-selling author Geneen Roth enables Christians, especially women, to articulate resistance to the body-hating cycle of dieting and bingeing so prominent in US culture.
