Research Seminar

Bringing the Best in Evangelical Scholarship to You

The Research Seminar is an initiative at Gordon-Conwell—Hamilton that enhances students’ academic experience by making it possible for them to learn from leading evangelical scholars. Dr. Todd Johnson, Eva B. and Paul E. Toms distinguished professor of mission and global Christianity at Gordon-Conwell, is the convener for this spring’s seminars on World Christianity.

For each interactive seminar, a prominent World Christianity scholar will join us virtually to present their research, and Hamilton students, faculty, and alumni pursuing doctoral degrees will gather in-person at the Hamilton campus (AC235) for a live discussion.

These scholars have a deep commitment to the faithful teaching and application of Scripture. Join us for a lively discussion this spring! More information coming soon.
