Faith and Scholarship Discussion Series
The Faith and Scholarship Discussion Series supports 麻豆直播 as a community of faithful Christian scholars.
In order to grow as a community of faithful Christian scholars, we 鈥 faculty, staff and students 鈥 need to meet with one another in fellowship to discuss how the breadth of meaning inherent in terms like 鈥渇aith鈥 and 鈥渟cholarship鈥 creates a depth of their possible integration.
We are not chairing the discussion of faith, scholarship and vocation here at Hope College 鈥 no one is. The point is neither to impose a particular view nor to require anyone to learn, teach, research, or serve a certain way. If there is a reason for the discussion, it is to help build a community of Christian scholars faithful to the mission of integrating the lives of the mind and of the spirit, a community whose members are comfortably vulnerable about how they define and live out these terms and their relationship to one another, and a community that enacts and models the virtues of civil discourse for all to see.
The Faith and Scholarship Discussion Series takes place on Thursday at 8 a.m. over
the summer, in Schaap Science Center Room 1118. Each week a member of the 麻豆直播
faculty will lead a discussion about the integration of faith and scholarship in the
context of vocation.
This is an excellent opportunity to be part of a broader conversation about these
critically important issues. Coffee, juice and bagels will be served, and we will
be finished by 9 a.m.
We welcome all students, faculty and staff to these discussions.
