At Gordon College, much of our time is spent in pursuit of truth. In classrooms, in our experiments and our term papers, in our chapel servics and our Bible studies, we are concerned with finding truth as students, as professors, as Christians. However, finding ways to talk about truth - what we know, what we believe - is also something we find challenging. And what is true at Gordon can be even more difficult in our families, in our churches, in our nation.
CFI seeks to help our community learn how to talk - which may require also learning how to listen. How can we find ways to engage genuinely with each other, even when we disagree about important things? How does our pursuit of what is true and just and beautiful relate to how we listen and talk with other about these things? And even further, are there ways that we might begin practicing these habits? Over the 2024-2025 year, join faculty, students and campus guests, as we explore these vital questions together.
