University Professors
University professors of religious studies and theology play a vital role in opening the intellect and the imagination of young people on the path of life, and you can open exponentially the perspective of Chinese international Students studying at your school.
At the same time, you face daunting challenges as you engage these young people who have crossed continents and cultures. Coming from a society with very different conceptual foundations – one whose current government actively promotes a materialist philosophy of life – these young people sometimes have difficulty making sense of theology and religious studies.
