Information on IFACS and CCSS

Several years ago the Institute for Advanced Christian Studies (IFACS) invited a number of existing organizations for Christians across a variety of scholarly disciplines to form the Council of Christian Scholarly Societies (CCSS). Since that time, IFACS has continued to support CCSS both financially and through representation at the annual CCSS meetings.

Member organizations join the Council of Christian Scholarly Societies to achieve purposes they could not achieve singly or could not achieve as well. CCSS is a vehicle for its members to exchange ideas about their individual and common goals, activities, and procedures. The CCSS provides a cross-disciplinary forum in which its member organizations can address major intellectual issues of the day. Through CCSS, member organizations provide practical support for each other and share the responsibility to nurture new generations of Christian scholars.

Affiliation of Christian Geologists
