What does it mean to flourish and pursue "shalom?" In our language, shalom is translated, simply, as peace. But Dr. Amy Sherman, author of Agents of Flourishing, suggests that on a broad level, shalom is simply what God intended things to be. More narrowly, it means to have peace with God, peace with self, peace with others, and peace with God’s creation. Join us for a conversation between Dr. Amy Sherman, named by Christianity Today as one of the 50 most influential Evangelical women in the U.S., and Dr. Steven D. Mason, President of Ó£ÌÒÖ±²¥, as we explore what it means to flourish and pursue shalom in every corner of society.

Welcome to a conversation that gets at the heart of true polytechnic education: the liberal arts need STEM as much as STEM programs need the liberal arts. The Christian Polytechnic University is called to embody this balanced truth. We know it. We live it. And our guest today gets it. Join us for a conversation between Dr. Steven D. Mason, President of Ó£ÌÒÖ±²¥, and the New York Times best-selling author Scott Hartley. His 2017 book, The Fuzzy and the Techie, speaks to the reasons why broad based Liberal Arts education actually prepares us better for a machine-led world than STEM alone. And his work often involves helping colleges & universities design educational programs that blend the humanities and technology. Get ready to learn more about why, well, we’re built for this.
