Conversations from Chancellor Street
Conversations from Chancellor Street is a podcast from the Center for Christian Study at the University of Virginia. At the Center for Christian Study we seek to promote Christian formation through the communication of Biblical truth, for the good of the University community, with hospitality and care, and in unity with other Grounds ministries. The intent of this podcast is to pull back the curtain on the formative dialogues that take place within our programs and around our building on a daily basis.
