Join members from INCHE and the Society of Christian Scholars (SCS) for the Thursday, February 18 webinar at 1400 GMT/UTC, titled, “Spirituality and Academia: Learning Simplicity, Humility, and Prayer with Luke’s Earliest Readers.”

In today’s society, we tend to evaluate university teachers on their ability to lecture well, knowledge of the subject matter, and ability to promote student learning. What might the Gospel of Luke have to say about this approach to teaching? How might Jesus’ spiritual practices affect his teaching? How could these practices affect change not only in our lives as educators but also in the lives of our students?

This webinar, sponsored by the Society of Christian Scholars, will feature Dr. Catherine Wright, Associate Professor of Biblical and Theological Studies at Bethel University in Minnesota (USA).

Immediately after the webinar, INCHE supports a follow-up small group discussion for participants who seek further reflection on the topic. Dr. Susan Felch, Calvin University Professor of English emeritus, will facilitate this discussion. A Zoom link will be provided during the webinar.
