George Fox Talks

George Fox Talks

The university's podcast and video series, George Fox Talks, brings you smart, faithful perspectives from our own scholars and mentors –  that may push you to think more broadly, deeply and critically. In a world full of paradox and polarization, we all must amplify the need to think for ourselves and be shaped by others, leaning ever toward Christ as our guide.
