Fellows
A weekly scholars' community for biblical formation, mutual support and onward service
The Fellows Programme
The annual Fellows Programme is an intensive weekly term-time study programme for 10 PhD students with seminars, discussion of guided reading, and supported practical exercises.
Fellows receive a small bursary and journey together through a three part curriculum from November to June:
- Theological and philosophical foundations
- Contributing to our fields from a Christian perspective
- Drawing on our academic expertise for winsome and persuasive apologetic outreach
Parts II and III culminate in giving group feedback on one another’s essays and practice TED-style talks respectively.
Fellows are helped into opportunities for service and alumni can continue their journey together through ongoing optional termly book discussions and annual reunions at the Forming a Christian Mind conference.
Taster Sessions
We will be hosting three ‘taster’ sessions open to all-comers in November and December 2023. These taster sessions will provide an introduction to the curriculum, and you are strongly encouraged to attend these sessions if you would like to apply to the Fellows Programme.
28 Nov | Introduction to the doctrine of God and its interdisciplinary implications | James Eglinton |
5 Dec | The relevance of the Creator-creature distinction for academia for today | Gray Sutanto |
19th Dec | Augustine and the intellectual impact of the Fall | Brad Green |
The sessions will take place both in person at the Round Church, Cambridge and on Zoom.
If you would like to apply to the Fellows Programme, you are strongly encouraged to attend these taster sessions, which cover the first three topics of the main curriculum. The closing date for scholarship applications will be Friday 22 December 2023.
Successful applicants will gather together to commence the formal Fellowship on Saturday 27 January 2024 for an ‘away day’, with weekly meetings starting from Tuesday 30 January 2024.
