Healing occurs because we are directed to dependence on Christ.

Journey (Scholar’s Compass)

August 11, 2015 by Jayme Yeo No Comments

Everything in life bends toward change, which is why I suppose there are so many travel narratives in the Christian Bible. In fact, the world “pilgrimage” in Psalm 84 is more literally translated as “highways” or “paths”—blessed is he whose heart is set on travel. But the truth is, the travel of the pilgrims in Psalm 84 looks nothing like the travel that I’m used to. In my experience, travel is an uncomfortable business, filled with lumpy beds and exhausting days.

Hearing God’s Voice in Nature (Scholar’s Compass)

August 4, 2015 by Tom Grosh IV No Comments

As you begin your work today, what text frames your lens for interacting with colleagues, other members of the university of community, larger networks, your research, the creation itself?

The Earth is the Lord’s: Worship as Vocation (Scholar’s Compass)

August 2, 2015 by Hannah Eagleson No Comments

I had an amazing week at the Lausanne Creation Care and the Gospel conference. Many of those present were involved in very active work to care for God’s creation, whether that meant working for a missions organization that helps communities improve agriculture and care for the environment by planting trees, or facilitating Christian academics to partner with local organizations in ecological research.

Pilgrimage: Life of a Pilgrim on Campus (Scholar’s Compass)

May 24, 2015 by Jamie Noyd No Comments

As we near the end of this series of devotions on pilgrimage, let’s return to where we began, on that highway to Jerusalem in Psalm 84. On that highway travelers have their hearts set on arriving in Jerusalem and worshipping in God’s holy temple. With their focus set on this story, the path they walk becomes one of refreshing springs even in the desert. When we encounter Paul in Athens, he is also following a story, a story that begins on a road to Damascus.
