The Christian Grads Fellowship

The Christian Grads Fellowship We are a network of Christian graduate students on multiple campuses across the U.S. Join us in integrating our faith and academics!

The Christian Grads Fellowship is a national network of graduate and professional students striving to integrate our faith and academics. We exist as local organizations on over forty university campuses, meeting regularly for study and prayer. However, these Fellowships are more than Christians gathering in community for the sake of community. At our heart, we are missional in our focus, reaching

out to the world by approaching our academics through the lens of faith. We assemble on our campuses to support each other and impact the academy as thinking and informed followers of Christ. To learn more about us and how to get connected, visit www.christiangrads.org

Join us on Thursday, May 16 at 12 p.m. CST for a virtual event about Engaging the University with a Christian Worldview Graciously hosted by Joshua Swamidass & Matt Koschmann.

During this virtual event, Swamidass and Koschmann will discuss how engaging a secular university with a Christian worldview can be approached in several ways, with sensitivity and respect for diverse perspectives being paramount. They will discuss the following strategies an more...

- Scholarly Dialogue: Encourage open, respectful dialogue between Christian scholars and those of other worldviews. This can take the form of seminars, panel discussions, or interdisciplinary forums where ideas can be exchanged and debated.

- Interfaith Initiatives: Foster interfaith dialogue and collaboration to promote understanding and mutual respect among people of different religious backgrounds. This can create an environment where the Christian worldview is one of many perspectives contributing to academic discourse.

- Integration of Faith and Learning: Encourage students and faculty to explore how their Christian faith intersects with their academic disciplines. This can be done through courses, research projects, and extracurricular activities that incorporate Christian perspectives into various fields of study.

Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey has signed legislation that would ban diversity, equity and inclusion programs at public schools, universities and state agencies.
