\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tInspired by the enormous legacy of evangelical theologian Carl F. H. Henry, the Henry Center was\nfounded as a part of Trinity Evangelical Divinity School in 2006.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe Henry Center utilizes classically-informed thought to address modern theological questions.\nOur mission is to bridge the gap between the academy and the church by cultivating resources and\ncommunities that advance Christian wisdom.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAs a center whose identity is shaped around the concept of theological understanding, we recognize that conversations about such topics often generate noise, not wisdom. Instead of adding to this noise, we aim to harmonize past and current discussions in ways that produce insight, not just information. To achieve\nthis task, we run a host of recurring programs involving a variety of people from across our community. We also fund faculty-led initiatives which draw attention to specific theological questions facing the evangelical church and academy.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
