Tigerville, SC —North Greenville University (NGU) will host Christian Worldview Week March 3–5. The event will focus on “Vocation and Human Flourishing,” and will feature keynote speakers Christina Crenshaw and Daniel Darling.

“Christian Worldview Week is an annual opportunity for the university to reinforce our commitment to helping students cultivate and apply a biblical worldview for the sake of being transformational leaders for church and society,” said Dr. Nathan Finn, executive director for the Institute for Faith and Culture at NGU. “I’m excited that Christina Crenshaw and Dan Darling will be with us this year to help our community think about how our vocations help us to flourish and help us to promote the flourishing of others.”

Crenshaw and Darling will give talks during chapel and at Performing Arts and Lecture Series (PALS) evening events.

Crenshaw is an author who focuses on the intersection of faith and culture. She has served in faculty or research roles at California Baptist University, Baylor University, and Dallas Theological Seminary. Crenshaw is a fellow of the Land Center for Cultural Engagement at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. Her first book will be published this fall and focuses on how a biblical view of justice offers a better approach than secular misunderstandings of justice.

She will be speaking in Turner Chapel on Monday, March 3 at 10 a.m. and in Hamlin Recital Hall on Tuesday, March 4 at 7 p.m. Her talks include: “Beyond the Sacred and Secular Divide: Christian Leadership for Every Vocational Sphere of Influence,” and “Redeeming Justice: Reclaiming God’s Vision for Doing Good.”

Darling is assistant professor of faith and culture at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, where he also directs the Land Center for Cultural Engagement. He is also the Church Engagement Strategist and a Research Fellow for the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission.

Darling has written numerous books, including the bestselling “Characters” series. He is also a columnist for WORLD Opinions and hosts ‘The Way Home’ podcast. He will be speaking in Turner Chapel on Wednesday, March 5 at 10 a.m. and conclude Christian Worldview Week with a lecture in Hamlin Recital Hall at 7 p.m.
