​

WHAT IS A CHRISTIAN STUDY CENTER?

​

Beginning at the University of Virginia in the 1970s, the Study Center movement has grown to include over 35 member institutions across the United States. Located next to secular universities, study centers support and complement their host institutions’ mission to pursue the moral and intellectual formation of persons. Study centers often accomplish this through hospitality, lectures, reading groups, and fellows programs.

​

​

CAN ONLY CHRISTIANS COME TO THE STUDY CENTER?

 

No! Jesus said Come to me all who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest. We are following him and will welcome all who come looking for a home away from home. We hope the only barrier of entry for someone to the Study Center is the sidewalk.

​

​

WHAT IS YOUR RELATIONSHIP TO WAKE FOREST UNIVERSITY?

​

We are a non-profit Christian ministry. We are not affiliated formally with the University. We exist to support and extend Christian ministry to Wake's students, faculty, staff, and broader university community. 

​​​

​

ARE YOU A CAMPUS MINISTRY? 

 

No, we are not a campus fellowship group like RUF or AIA. Traditionally, these groups through a combination of pastoral care, weekly worship, and small groups are the primary source of Christian formation for college students. We are a hub that strengthens those ministries by providing a beautiful space to meet with students, a library, and practical support. We extend the work of campus ministries by providing elective theological or biblical short-courses and conversations about vocation or “faith and work.”  We hope to be the catalyst for larger “Veritas Forum-like” events at Wake which are co-hosted by campus ministries. 

 

​

CAN I USE THE KITCHEN?

​

We offer free snacks to all students, and our kitchen is available for all of your baking and culinary needs.

​

​

CAN I BORROW A BOOK?

​

Yes! Just ask one of our staff members. They would love to give you a suggestion.
