Culture Seminar
Recognizing that the Christian tradition is not simply an artifact to be analyzed but a source of knowledge and wisdom to be explored and appropriated, the Culture Seminar works in cooperation with the University of Florida at the highest levels of scholarship to explore the intellectual and cultural resources of the Christian tradition for understanding and responding to the challenges created by contemporary cultural change. Culture Seminar lectures, featuring scholars from the University of Florida and guests from other universities, take place both on the campus of the university and in the Center’s classroom.
