Our Mission

Leading Christian thought and formation to shape the University of Wisconsin community and beyond.

Our Vision

Renewed Christian presence in the pluralistic university where all are learning and serving to create a more virtuous world. 

Core Values

We Embody Lavish Hospitality
Reflecting God’s boundless love, we extend heartfelt hospitality in all we do. We treat everyone as a neighbor and attend to their needs as if attending to Christ himself. We desire that guests experience our offerings as memorable for both their intellectual and spiritual content and their aesthetic and relational attributes.
We Practice Purposeful Weaving
We bring our authentic selves to our project in a spirit of collaboration under the direction of the Holy Spirit. Together, we create a tapestry more beautiful, valuable, and stronger than any of us could weave on our own. This creates a healthy culture, a vibrant spiritual ecosystem, and a thick public witness to the university community.
We Spit-Shine Everything We Do
Humility and excellence anchor our approach to work. No one person is above pitching in with the humblest task. Through diligence and attention to detail, we bring extra polish and shine to each aspect of our project.

What We Believe

We believe in:

The only true God, the almighty Creator of all things,
existing eternally in three persons
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit full of love and glory.

The unique divine inspiration,
entire trustworthiness
and authority of the Bible.

The value and dignity of all people:
created in God’s image to live in love and holiness,
but alienated from God and each other because of our sin and guilt,
and justly subject to God’s judgment.

Jesus Christ, fully human and fully divine,
who lived as perfect example,
who assumed the judgment due sinners by dying in our place,
and who was bodily raised from the dead and ascended as Savior and Lord.
Salvation is by God’s grace to all who put their faith in Jesus Christ alone.

The indwelling presence and transforming power of the Holy Spirit,
who gives to all believers a new life and calling to obedient service.

The unity of all believers in Jesus Christ,
manifest in worshiping and witnessing churches
making disciples throughout the world.

The victorious reign and future personal return of Jesus Christ,
who will judge the unrepentant and redeemed with justice and mercy,
receiving the redeemed into eternal life.

To God be glory forever.
