Her recent devotional book, The Sun Still Rises: Meditations on Faith at Midlife, was written over the span of 14 of her own midlife years. Before beginning her tenure at Yale, Professor Tisdale served on the faculties of Princeton Theological Seminary, Union Presbyterian Seminary in Virginia (now Union Presbyterian Seminary), and as adjunct faculty at Union Theological Seminary in New York. She has been a pastor in congregations ranging in size from 33 to several thousand. While on the pastoral staff of Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church in New York City, she directed a lay seminary that offered courses for over 2000 people in the greater NYC area.  Professor Tisdale is a former president of the Academy of Homiletics, the professional society for North American teachers of preaching, who presented her with a Lifetime Achievement Award in 2018.  She is an ordained minister in the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.)  She is now retired and living with her husband Alfred in Durham, NC, close to extended family.view less
