UA Christian Staff and Faculty Fellowship - Expository apologetics, 9/30

Join us on 9/30 on Zoom at 11:45 AM - 12:45 PM for a UA Christian Staff and Faculty Fellowship gathering. 

You're welcome to keep eating your lunch during the gathering. 

Since our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, take time on 9/30 for some facilities maintenance. It's National Women's Health and Fitness Day. How can women get the men in their lives to join in? Apparently, it's just a matter of a special song. 

We'll discuss Chapter 4 of Expository Apologetics: Answering Objections with the Power of the Word by Voddie Baucham Jr. Here are some Amazon links:

These happened on 9/30

  • 1946. The International Military War Tribunal at Nuremberg, Germany convicted 22 Nazi leaders for war crimes.

 Christian Faculty and Staff Network gathering on 10/16 - Are we selfish about work?  Come to the Christian Faculty and Staff Network lunch gathering on Wednesday, October 16 , at 11:45 AM (done by 12:45 PM). We meet at the Baptist Campus Ministries building (University Boulevard and 4th Avenue).  More: It's the best meal deal in town: You can get lunch there for $1 thanks to the generosity of local churches. Don't forget to thank the church workers for what they do for the students. The first meal of the term is special, so you won't want to miss it. Our book for the term is Tim Keller's Every Good Endeavor: Connecting Your Work to God's Work . Here's a summary from the Amazon page: "With deep conviction and often surprising advice, Keller shows readers that biblical wisdom is immensely relevant to our questions about work today. In fact, the Christian view of work that we work to serve others, not ourselv...

UA Christian Staff and Faculty Fellowship - Chapter 4 - Making a difference; and don't forget the book survey, 4/7

Come to the Christian Faculty and Staff Fellowship on Wednesday, 3/24, at 11:45 AM (done by 12:45 PM).  We'll finish Chapter 4 of The Outrageous Idea of Christian Scholarship by George M. Marsden. If Christians are informing their scholarship with their faith, what would that look like and what difference would it make? The Amazon links are: Paperback: https://amzn.to/3pIQRwL Kindle: https://amzn.to/32W0iPM   From the abstract on Amazon: "Marsden argues forcefully that mainstream American higher education needs to be more open to explicit expressions of faith and to accept what faith means in an intellectual context."  Meeting logistics   We'll continue to meet on Zoom until it's clear that staff, faculty, and students are fully back on campus and pursuing their regular activities. I'll keep checking for announcements about that.  The Zoom link is: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87919167217?pwd=cVJjbHhUaXhidllPMkM1UXVCbzc0QT09   You're welcome to eat your...

Christian Faculty and Staff Fellowship meets November 28

  I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and enjoyed the time off. We'll resume on 11/28 with a visit by Jennifer Waddell , Athletes in Action , thanks to Phil Bishop.   Next semester's book: Love Your God with All Your Mind: The Role of Reason in the Life of the Soul by J.P. Moreland (NavPress, 2011). The title is linked to Amazon. Make sure to get the 2012 version. It's an updated version of the book from 1997. Moreland makes the case for the intellectual appeal and rigor of Christianity. It has a cultural, worldview, and apologetics outlook and is relevant to us who want to be salt and light in the groves of academe. The book can be a basis for other readings we would do.   Looking ahead: I came across this announcement for the Dallas Conference on Science and Faith in January 2019 . It looks like it has a substantive agenda for those who might be interested.   And since we're on the subject of science and faith, today is Red Planet Day to commemo...
