“Christian Thinking as Pilgrimage” Conference
“Christian Thinking as Pilgrimage”
Hosts: Huntington University Center for Faith Integration & Vocation, Huntington, Indiana
Sponsored by: CCCU with additional support from the Network for Vocation in Undergrate Education (NetVUE)
What does it mean to think like a Christian?
We live in a complex postsecular age in which faith, learning, and personal identity are intertwined. Older models for abstractly contrasting Christian thought with secular ways of understanding the world no longer make much sense. Instead, Christian thinking is better envisioned as an intellectual pilgrimage that involves intentional self-reflection and active engagement with other points of view. Pilgrimage thinking opens new pathways for Christian educators and students to more fully understand themselves, constructively participate in public discourse, and fruitfully engage in the ongoing vocation of academic inquiry. Join Douglas Jacobsen and Rhonda Hustedt Jacobsen, authors Christianity and Intellectual Inquiry: Thinking as Pilgrimage (Oxford University Press, 2025), and scholars from a variety of CCCU schools and disciplines for a lively discussion about what it means to be a Christian intellectual pilgrim.
The one-day conference is sponsored by the Council for Christian Colleges & Universities (CCCU) with additional support from the Network for Vocation in Undergraduate Education (NetVUE). NetVUE is a program of the Council of Independent Colleges, Washington, DC.
