High Ground at Gettysburg

Host

"Faculty Commons performs a vital job of encouraging and equipping faculty to live out their lives as Christian academics. Through regular campus gatherings, international trips, conferences, Bible studies, and prayer, faculty are nurtured and built up to be Christ’s ambassadors. My first experience with a Faculty Commons international ministry trip to Bulgaria was life-changing, and I now lead medical mission trips to India."

— Michael Atchison, Professor of Biochemistry, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of Pennsylvania

High Ground at Gettysburg is hosted by Faculty Commons, Cru’s ministry to the uniquely strategic audience of university professors and graduate students.

Professors shape the lives of our children and grandchildren. The thoughts, opinions, and values of these 1.5 million U.S. professors sculpt our society. So much of what we love and cherish is “downstream” of the academy!

Graduate students are a vital part of the academy and an important part of our mission. We build movements of professors and graduate students to take the hope of Jesus Christ to the world.

Faculty Commons works towards the day ...

— when every student, undergraduate and graduate, will have the opportunity to know professors who follow Christ.

— when every campus has a movement of Christian professors, men and women who find the person and works of Jesus of Nazareth to be satisfying and true, who look to Him as the beautiful hope for the world and desire to make Him known on campus and throughout the world, and that each campus will have faculty who point students and colleagues to the One “in whom we live and move and have our being” (Acts 17:28).

— when every academic discipline has movements of Christian scholars working within it so that biblical perspectives are heard and respected in the university and throughout the world.
