Faculty Commons

Jim and Cindy Hynds moved to Chattanooga in October, 2013. From 2000 – 2013 they served with Cru in Prague, Czech Republic. Faculty Commons launched at UTC in January 2014 and is a growing community of faculty who share a common love for students, for knowledge and for a free exchange of ideas. Most importantly, we are followers of Jesus Christ and believe He is the author of life.

We in Faculty Commons are men and women of the academy who find the person and works of Jesus Christ to be satisfying and true, and who look to him as the beautiful hope for the world. We dream of a day when movements of Christian professors willingly wrestle with the ever-challenging question, “As followers of Christ, what should we do in the academy?”

Faculty Commons seeks to help and resource professors wherever they are in their spiritual journey.

We are a ministry of Cru.  Please visit the websites, Faculty Commons and Cru.
