		Advent for Academics: Living the Christian Year Advent is traditionally a time of reflection, but how can we reflect in the midst of academic busy-ness? We speak with Bobby Gross about his new book, Living the Christian Year.

		Being Open about My Faith Without Turning People Off Kenneth G. Elzinga, Robert C. Taylor Professor of Economics at the University of Virginia, shares how he has shared his love for the Lord using examples from his own experience.

		How Can We Change the University? C. John Sommerville expounds on the assertion that now is a time of opportunity for Christians in the university. He introduces his book The Decline of the Secular University, to tell us how we must now embark on changing the academic world.

		Leading a Balanced Life of Excellence What good is it if we gain academic prestige, yet forfeit our souls? Robert Kaita, Princeton Physicist, offers his perspective and a Scriptural basis for aiming to serve Christ and achieve academic success simultaneously.

		THE GRACE OF EXILE: Living as resident aliens in the academic world University and college faculty who desire to follow the Lord Jesus Christ in their lives and vocations often find themselves feeling like a small cognitive minority in the academic world. We want to share these resources for faculty in secular settings.
