Resources for Advent

December 2, 2018 by Hannah Eagleson 2 Comments

ESN frequently commissions new material designed for Christian academics to use in the seasons of the church calendar. In the past few years, our talented authors have created an impressive archive of ESN material for the Advent/Christmas and Lent/Easter seasons. We're so grateful to have so many authors sharing their perspectives and experiences of the season. This year, with some big transitions and new projects in the works, we've decided instead to create a list of Advent resources you may find helpful this year, … [Read more...] about Resources for Advent

Science Corner: Objects in Poster May Be Further Away Than They Appear

July 20, 2016 by Andy Walsh Leave a Comment

In the week when nerds make their annual pilgrimage to San Diego Comic-Con, I couldn't resist this little tidbit on science fiction meets science fact. Last week, a poster was revealed for the upcoming Star Wars movie Rogue One. As you can see, the Death Star looms large over a surface-bound skirmish. While fully acknowledging that the Death Star doesn't exist as such and so obviously computer graphics and Photoshop were involved in rendering this image for our galaxy, one might wonder if it would be physically possible … [Read more...] about Science Corner: Objects in Poster May Be Further Away Than They Appear

June 4, 2014 by Tom Grosh IV Leave a Comment

Christian Faculty Mentoring Students  and  Beyond Academics: Kelly Arispe and Spanish Linguistics  are two of several excellent resources for Faculty Ministry. As you may guess, I'm really excited about the growing bank of resources focused on gathering students and faculty together. Yes, another subtle plug for what has been referred to as  Dinner Table Conversations  :-) Read, share, discuss, brainstorm on summer/fall gatherings for conversation/storytelling/mentoring. . . .

Integrating faith & field vs.  Realizing justice in action Yes, we've made it to the finals of  ESN March Madness '14.
