Weekly Dinner and Discussion:

Each semester, we gather on Tuesday evenings at Hill House from 6:30-8:30 for a meal, a presentation, and lively discussion. In addition to the instruction led by the director, various guests are invited to teach and speak. This past Fall semester, we talked about a number of topics under the broader theme of faith and reason, such as Christianity and science, the reliability of the Bible, the problem of evil, and the challenge of other religions. No preparation or registration is required! Just show up and be part of the conversation with friends. All are welcome.

Public Reading of Scripture:

Each Monday morning at 7am, we gather for the Public Reading of Scripture. This is an under-appreciated ancient Christian practice that serves to draw our minds, hearts, and bodies more fully into the narrative shape of the story of God and God's people. Breakfast and coffee is provided, and this Spring we are reading through the entire books of Hosea and Exodus.

Monthly Lectures and Guest Scholars:

Each month we invite exemplary researchers and practitioners to join us for a meal and speak on various topics. These will be announced as the semester unfolds. You can listen to recent lecture recordings here.

Each film is examined for how it might move us toward a better understanding of God, self, neighbor, and our world.

Daily Coffee, Library and Study Hours:

Come by Hill House any weekday before or after class for good coffee and a peaceful place to study, pray, browse our library, and meet with friends. We’re currently open from 1pm-6pm, Monday through Thursday.
