The voices of Theological horizons
Hear from the many different folks who are an integral part of Theological Horizons explain why they give to our ministry and what TH means to them.
“TH is the community I wish I had explored when I was an undergraduate student at the University. So I decided to take advantage of my involvement now and dropped by a Vintage Lunch series, where I met one of the new nurses in my intensive care unit. We had an engaging discussion about forgiveness that set the foundation for the challenging situations we encounter at work. It’s so amazing to be a part of a community that pays it forward in so many unexpected ways.” - Dr. Taison Bell, Board Member
“Why do we contribute? Our first exposure to a parachurch ministry was, as newlyweds in 1977, when the Navy moved us to Japan - far from our families and friends. We cherished the fellowship, teaching, and sense of community provided by that ministry. While the specific context is certainly different, Theological Horizons provides the same type of ministry to the UVA community and we welcome the opportunity to support it.”
“My time at Theological Horizons offered me a safe space to wonder about questions of purpose and vocation, all while challenging me to slow down and prepare my heart for life post-graduation. It was through guest speakers and guided readings that I was able to better understand what it means to be a good neighbor, to consider issues of inequality and justice consciously, and how I may find God in unexpected places." - Harmony LaJeunesse, UVA 2023
"It seems that people - young adults especially - are figuring out how to faithfully engage in a world that doesn't always make sense. Theological Horizons is special - uniquely providing space for us to pursue the Kingdom of God here on earth alongside seekers and our neighbors, buoyed by the encouragement of saints before us. Through its intentional programming and welcoming environment, the work of TH gives us great hope for the year ahead.”
- Betty Li-Simpson and Joshua Simpson-Li
