Thanks to a $4.5 million grant from the John Templeton Foundation, CTI is undertaking a three-year inquiry into several despair-ridden dimensions of contemporary life and forging a new, interdisciplinary theology of hope to address them.

Under the direction of experienced Scriptural Reasoner Tom Greggs, this winter CTI hosted Peter Ochs, Vanessa Ochs, David Ford, Deborah Ford, Valerie Cooper, Steven Kepnes, and Laurie Zoloth for its latest inquiry on Scriptural Reasoning.

CTI’s series of online seminars for the first cohort of the Despair to Hope project is underway, with Fellows participating from South Africa, Scotland, England, and the United States.

In the latest episode of the Theology Matters podcast, host Joshua Mauldin discusses “Doing Theology Today” with Daniel Lee Hill, a member of CTI’s Inquiry on the Future of Theology.
