Josh Good

Director, Religion & Society Program, The Aspen Institute

Josh Good directs the Aspen Institute’s Religion & Society Program which administers three initiatives: Faith Angle Forum, Aspen Religion Fellows, and Aspen Religion & Philanthropy. Since 2018, Josh has led Faith Angle Forum, a program that strengthens reporting and commentary on how religious believers, religious convictions, and moral arguments affect American politics and public life. In addition to a twice-monthly podcast, Faith Angle convenes two-day forums intentionally “away” from the power centers of Washington and New York, inviting journalists to go deep with top religion scholars on contemporary issues. Previously, Josh served as a director for the Kern Family Foundation’s Faith, Work, and Economics Program and, before that, as manager of the American Enterprise Institute’s outreach program to faculty and student leaders at Christian colleges. He also worked on responsible fatherhood initiatives and on a national public-private venture that helped urban congregations and local businesses work together in employing and supporting ex-prisoners. Josh holds a BA in history from Covenant College and a master’s degree in Christianity and Culture from Harvard University. His work has been published by Routledge Press, in The Hill, National Review, Deseret News, and The American.
