Happy summer from Scholé House. Sometimes the wisdom philosophy and Scripture guide us to is just to... log off and go outside!

Join us Monday evening!

The Economy of the Kingdom of God
Stephen Day, PhD, VCU
Monday October 28, 7:00
Scholé House, 819 S. Cathedral Place, VCU

Jesus of Nazareth preached about the coming kingdom of God, and what it would be like. But would this kingdom have an economic system? In this talk, Dr. Day discusses Jesus’ economic assumptions, his economic logic, and descriptions of God’s kingdom would work. Jesus’ teachings do not give a ringing endorsement or condemnation of a contemporary economic system, but they do give us new insights into how we should live in this world and the one to come.

What is a Christian study center? And why is it called a movement?

Join the Consortium for a one-hour session designed specifically for those who either may not be familiar with Christian study centers, or who may only be familiar with a single center and are curious to learn more about the national movement.

How do Christian study centers fit into the landscape of campus ministries? What are the latest developments in the movement, and in what ways are Christian study centers a new model of Christian Higher Education?

In this one-hour virtual meeting on December 13th at 8 pm ET, Executive Director Karl Johnson will address these questions and offer insight into where the movement may be headed.

Open to all—please share this meeting with anyone you know who may be interested.
