Our friend and endorser James K.A. Smith of Calvin College continues to do interesting things. He invites EPers to consider their next seminar in Christian Scholarship, focused on "Philosophy and Liturgy."

For further application information on the summer 2008 seminars, please visit http://www.calvin.edu/scs/
