Thursday Thinking - MacLaurinCSF

Before becoming the pastor at Valley Christian Church, I served for fifteen years as a campus pastor at the University of Minnesota. The campus ministry I worked with was Christian Student Fellowship. Last year, Christian Student Fellowship merged with another ministry, the MacLaurin Institute, to form what is now called MacLaurinCSF. I believe the new joint ministry is a very good thing, and I am currently serving on the MacLaurinCSF board of directors.

MacLaurinCSF's goal is to strengthen Christian intellectual life in this region by creating public space for leaders in the academy and church to address enduring human questions together.

On Thursday, February 2, MacLaurinCSF is presenting the 8th Annual Faith & Law Lecture. The lecture will be presented by Margo Bagley, Professor of Law, University of Virginia. It will focus on concerns and Christian perspectives related to organic seed growers and larger concerns regarding the patenting of "life."

If you are interested in this topic, please plan to attend, Thursday, February 3, 12:15pm, Room 30, Mondale Hall, University of Minnesota Law School (Westbank), 229 - 19th Ave S, Minneapolis, MN 55455.
