Miller has offered a fresh interpretation of such things as Christ's atonement,[5] the appropriate relationship of scholarship with faith,[6][7] and the nature of Latter-day Saint "testimony".[8] Miller co-founded Salt Press, a publisher of Mormon studies sold to BYU's Maxwell Institute, [9] and also founded and serves as co-director of the annual colloquia, the Mormon Theology Seminar.[10]
