Welcome to Campus Calling—a newsletter from InterVarsity’s Faculty Ministry. Campus Calling is about bringing light, helping us to grow in our understanding of God in the face of Christ (II Cor. 4:5-9).
It may be hard to believe in moments like this, but that is what we are. Held in mercy. Held in powerful, everlasting love. Join us in choosing to be present in this moment and take a few minutes to read this message from Dr. Jean Neely, a professor at Azusa Pacific University. May we all take a deep breath of God's peace and presence.
Through a challenging year, Professor Rachel Ferguson moves from an intellectual engagement with the Christian faith to a fuller understanding of discipleship, embracing new practices to truly dwell in Christ, leading to the spiritual transformation she needed, and that we all deeply desire.

Faithful faculty can and must have a powerfully redemptive influence on colleges and universities, and it is in this work that I want to set out four dreams I have for academia.
