Dr. Tim O'Malley

In addition to the title above, Dr. Tim O’Malley is the Academic Director of the Notre Dame Center for Liturgy and holds a concurrent appointment in the Department of Theology at the University of Notre Dame. 

Dr. O’Malley completed a doctorate at Boston College in theology and education, focusing on an Augustinian approach to liturgical formation. He researches and teaches at Notre Dame in the areas of liturgical-sacramental theology, marriage and family, Catholic higher education, catechesis, preaching, and spirituality. His teaching and research adapts Romano Guardini’s approach to liturgical-sacramental formation in late modernity. He is the author of nine books on topics related to the liturgy, RCIA, the Eucharist, sacramental theology, marriage and family, and liturgical formation.

Timothy is presently working on two academic books, one related to Augustine and liturgical formation and the second on liturgy and the transformation of the social order.
