Marriage is based on the truth that men and women are complementary, the biological fact that reproduction depends on a man and a woman, and the reality that children need a mother and a father. Redefining marriage does not simply expand the existing understanding of marriage; it rejects these truths.
Marriage is society’s least restrictive means of ensuring the well-being of children. By encouraging the norms of marriage— monogamy, sexual exclusivity, and permanence—the state strengthens civil society and reduces its own role. The future of this country depends on the future of marriage. The future of marriage depends on citizens understanding what it is and why it matters and demanding that government policies support, not undermine, true marriage.

Many centuries ago, God gave a vision of “dry bones” to the Prophet Ezekiel and asked him an important question: “Can these bones live again?” It is a question that confronts each of us too. Is spiritual renewal really possible? Can the “dry bones” of our own lives and institutions be truly revived? Can old structures be given new life and hope? If you, like hundreds of students throughout New England, yearn to see a fresh outpouring of spiritual awakening on our region and throughout the world, then this seminar is the place for you.

In this seminar, Baroness Cox discussed the Biblical mandate to “speak for the oppressed” with examples taken from the experience of Humanitarian Aid Relief Trust (HART). HART works with people suffering from oppression and persecution, often trapped behind closed borders, off the radar screen of major aid organizations and the international media. Baroness Cox discusses ways in which we can address contemporary challenges such as modernday slavery, human trafficking and the suffering of girls and women subjected to forced prostitution and female genital mutilation.

God calls us to transform the world. The good news is that God doesn’t abandon us for this task. God is reconciling to himself all things through Christ—including Ivy League campuses. Christ now extends his ministry of reconciliation through his people. Hence, we are called to transform the culture of our campuses in the name of Christ, by the power of the Spirit, the joy of the campus, and the glory of God. What then does it look like for us to engage our campuses with a cruciform way of life in order to transform our campuses with resurrection power?
