Renewing Minds.
Discerning Vocation.
Engaging Culture.
Integrating Faith with all of life.
Hill House is a Christian study center serving The University of Texas-Austin that supports students and faculty who are
asking questions about God,
discerning their sense of calling,
and discovering how faith informs every area of life.
Nurtured by a tradition of Christian living and scholarship that takes both the Bible and contemporary culture seriously, Hill House seeks to provide a hospitable environment that equips students to confidently go into the world and integrate their faith in academia, the workplace, and the community.
Through vulnerable dialogue, honest exploration, and critical thinking, Hill House gives students the tools to grow in wisdom, character, and clarity of purpose. This formation process provides a foundation for knowing God more deeply, pursuing a meaningful vocation, and engaging challenging questions with love and humility.
