Save the date for the Davis Colloquium on Christianity and Economy on Friday, October 27th from 10 am to 4 pm in the Ohio Union Senate Chamber.

Six scholars, representing a range of disciplinary, historical, cultural, and theological perspectives, will each offer a 20-minute presentation drawing on their own research to address a common set of questions. Each presentation will be followed by Q&A and discussion. In addition, the scholars will participate in a closing, moderated panel discussion about patterns and differences across time and place.

​Some of the questions to be addressed include:

  *   How do you theorize the relationship between the "religious" and the "economic" in your analyses of Christian thought and practice? What different approaches are available for the historian or scholar of religion?
  *   How would the individuals, institutions, or communities you study differentiate if at all between religion/theology/spirituality and economic life? Or how do they see them as intertwined?
  *   Are there distinctive Christian views and practices that shape how Christians have thought about economic life or engaged in economic activity?
  *   How have the economic structures and practices of their societies shaped the ways Christians think about God, Christ, and other "religious" themes and concepts?

Please RSVP here by Monday, October 16th, at 12pm!<https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=NlYJ61IQlUiVKx_53x0RIaPbmc5O2jhEpx4AoKiCkrNURVZaMFZXMFUyWDlZMDlJMFBMUUlOMUMwWC4u>
