Global Scholars

Global Scholars equips Christian professors to have redemptive influence among their students, colleagues, universities, and academic disciplines. Our vision is that one day every student, university, and discipline will have Christian professors who communicate the truth, goodness, and beauty of
Christ.

Global Scholars is uniquely positioned to connect and equip Christian professors worldwide and across all academic disciplines. Ministering to professors in secular colleges and universities, we offer a full slate of programs proven to be effective in equipping Christian scholars to be Christ’s ambassadors on campus.

We connect Christian professors worldwide through the Society of Christian Scholars. There we provide 14 programs and services Christian scholars need to serve Christ among their students, colleagues, and disciplines. These include mentoring, webinars, research databases, editorial services, and more.

Global Scholars continually evaluates the impact of Society of Christian Scholars programs to ensure strong return on investment. Our leadership team members have firsthand experience in academia and have taught and published about the integration of faith and scholarship. Our Regional Representatives come from the part of the world that they serve and can assist professors in culturally meaningful ways. We engage an experienced team of volunteers in various program areas to be good stewards of donated funds.

In the 2022-2023 fiscal year, we equipped 1,159 professors in 71 nations to be salt and light for Christ on their campuses and in their disciplines. Together, they have influenced more than 193,553 university students for Christ (and countless more indirectly through their campus presence, public speaking, and publications.)

Society members have provided feedback showing that the Society of Christian Scholars is equipping professors for redemptive influence:

"Christian scholars are a minority in public universities, but the Society is a good fellowship, not just spiritually, but academically as well."

"I have attended Society seminars, and through the Society's grants, I have organized one workshop and attended an international conference on the integration of faith and scholarship ... The result is that I now think deeply about my research and teaching, to see how I can honor God in my research ethics and excellence and how I can relate to my students and perform my teaching duties as an ambassador of Christ."

"As a young man, I became a teacher to find a means of livelihood. My joining the university was a career move, and there was nothing missional about it. Now comes the Society of Christian Scholars. Your messages have made it clear to me that my job is not coincidental; it is Gods grand design so that I may fulfill His eternal plan through my work and career."
