The
Baylor Institute for Faith and Learning
The Baylor Insitute for Faith and Learning serves as a local, national, and international house of studies fostering reflection and scholarship that connect faith and learning in educationally significant ways. This effort involves retrieving and revitalizing traditional Christian intellectual resources and, at times, reconceiving the relation of these resources to contemporary scholarship.
The Center for Christian Ethics at Baylor University
Helping church members to think with a Christian mind about the ethical issues in our society is the primary objective of the Center for Christian Ethics at Baylor University. The Center publishes Christian Reflection: A Series in Faith and Ethics quarterly with themed articles, inspirational pieces, book-reviews, interviews, Christian art, worship aids, and hymns that help the church reintegrate Christian ethical reflection, worship, and art. Worship aids and lesson materials are available free on their website to enrich personal or group study of Christian Reflection.
