About this Event

Theological Collaborative

Christian professors at secular universities have a unique call to glorify God through the life of the mind in the sight of non-Christian colleagues and students. The Faculty Theological Collaborative exists to support you in this calling through advanced theological training, living examples of the integration of faith and scholarship, and rich fellowship with Christian faculty across institutions and disciplines. This three-day workshop is built around a series of dialogues between academic theologians and scholars in the natural sciences, social sciences, and arts and humanities. Between presentations showcasing exemplary theological integration across the disciplines, break-out sessions will invite you to share, brainstorm, or refine practical applications in your own research and teaching.

This year’s special theme is the doctrine of creation. Knowing God as Creator illuminates all of our work, whether it’s discerning God’s design in the created order, stewarding the creatures he has entrusted to our care, understanding the institutions and technologies humans have created as expressions of our potential as imago dei, or participating in God’s ongoing work in our own creativity.

The Faculty Theological Collaborative is a joint project of Regent College, a graduate school of theology focused on the education of the laity, and members of the Consortium of Christian Study Centers, including Anselm House at the University of Minnesota, the Center for Christianity and Scholarship at Duke University, and Octet Collaborative at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Faculty associated with any Christian study center or center for Catholic thought are welcome to participate.
