Hosted by: Graduate & Faculty Ministries and InterVarsity Press
When 1,500 scholars and professionals gather, it’s a one-of-a-kind experience. Join us at InterVarsity’s Following Christ 2008, the triennial conference for graduate students, faculty, and professionals. Our theme is human flourishing. What does it take for people to truly flourish? How can we ourselves do well and also help those around us —and around the world — to flourish? What did God make us to be?
