Students Looking for a Good Elective?

Our own Dr. Bob Osburn, of the MacLaurin Institute, is teaching a new course in spring of 2008. This is an important course, and a good opportunity for students to understand the practical implications of faith and its applicability to public life:

Religion, Ethics, and Educational Policy
EdPA 3010: Special Topics for Undergraduates

Religious pluralism and disputes regarding religion in public life demand greater skill in handling topics in religion and ethics in educational settings.

Promote this among your students!

The MacLaurin Institute is sponsoring a Student Apologetics Training Seminar on February 1 & 2, 2008. There is a discount for those who register before January 15, 2008.

But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander.
(I Peter 3:15-16, NIV)
