We generally try to avoid alarmist communications at ESN, but we truly are at a crucial moment, and we want to invite you to partner with us in supporting Christian academics. Last week we shared the wonderful news that God has blessed and expanded the Emerging Scholars Network’s ministry in the last year and a half. We’re very grateful for the temporary funding which God used to grow ESN over the past few years, but it will be ending soon.
During the summer of 2014, thanks to generous temporary funding Hannah Eagleson, an active member of the Emerging Scholars Network, joined InterVarsity Christian Fellowship staff to develop Scholar’s Compass: a devotional for and by Christian scholars.

- deepening partnerships (e.g., American Scientific Affiliation).
- serving the Urbana Students Mission Conference Sponsors/Scholars program (in which we’ll serve 45-55 students seeking to connect with other Christian academics and grow in understanding their vocations). Pre-Urbana Google Hangouts are already “in session!”
- writing workshops at various Graduate & Faculty Ministry conferences and campus chapters.
