Gender and Christianity
Dates: Jun 21, 2010 - Jul 16, 2010
Hosted by: A Lilly Fellows Program Summer Seminar
College and university students reflect a bewildering range of perspectives on the relationship between gender and Christianity. These perceptions, unwittingly or consciously, influence their choice of vocation, their personal associations, even the ways in which they participate in class. Professors with a textured understanding of the wide expanse of these perspectives will be uniquely equipped to mentor students in every dimension of their educational experience. Therefore, faculty at member institutions of the Lilly Fellows Program are encouraged to apply for participation in this summer seminar on Gender and Christianity. Those who are selected to participate will form a cadre of well-informed faculty who catalyze discussion and action on their campuses directed toward a rapprochement among students, staff, and faculty who often hold seemingly incompatible views of gender and Christianity.
The seminar will be co-directed by two Seattle Pacific University faculty members: Priscilla Pope-Levison, Professor of Theology, and Jack Levison, Professor of New Testament. Participants will receive a stipend to cover travel, lodging, and food. For more details and an application form, href=“http://www.spu.edu/genderandchristianity2010” target=”_blank”>click here.
