PROGRAMS
Come learn with us
Our programming offers opportunities to explore the intellectual and cultural resources of the Christian tradition through stand-alone events, multi-week reading groups, as well as more sustained communities of intellectual and moral formation for students and faculty.
All of our programs embody our commitment to hospitality, generous conversation, and the integration of faith and life.

Advent Pop-Up with Laurie Goddard
Tish Harrison Warren's short book on Advent (Advent: The Season of Hope) — a centuries old practice amongst Christians leading up to Christmas — will challenge and encourage us to step more deeply into understanding the three advents of Christ. Warren uses historical perspectives and Scripture to highlight the Christian virtue of "waiting" and calls this part of the church calendar "training in hope."
Join us to discuss this book together and both increase our delight and our perseverance until the final Advent, the return of Christ. All are welcome to read the book beforehand and join for discussion. An Advent Concert will take place right after at 7PM for those who can stay.
Advent Concert with Jaxon Crews
The Advent Concert is open to all and does not require participation in the book discussion. Join us at 7PM as Jaxon Crews plays songs to help us meditate on the Advent season.

Walker Percy Fellows Program
Walker Percy Fellows pursue the integration of faith, life, and learning during their undergraduate years. The program combines readings in the Christian tradition, fellowship around shared meals, and rich conversations to foster a community of intellectual and spiritual formation.
The 2025-2026 cohort will begin meeting this fall for Year One of the curriculum focused on the cultivation of the Christian Mind. During this year, students will receive a grounding in the biblical story and in a Christian understanding of the pursuit of knowledge and wisdom.
Applications for the 2025-2026 cohort are now closed.
