How to Be a Christian in Academia: The Three Mandates - David Sandifer
In our engagement with the world, evangelicals often wrestle with the tension between the 'creation mandate' and the 'gospel mandate'. But there is a third mandate for the people of God that is just as central to our witness: the 'holiness mandate'. This seminar unpacks the three mandates and will explore applications to the particular context of Christians working in the academic sphere.
