John - congratulations! I just purchased your book and am excited to read it. I am the board chair for The Institute for Christian Studies in Toronto - icscanada.edu. We are a graduate school that seeks to be the kind of place you describe - helping to deal with "messy and uncomfortable" life questions, and helping students to be a "faithful presence" in culture through connecting faith and life. I note Kristin DuMez's name in your book acknowledgements - until recently she served on our Faculty Senate. Thanks for your encouragement to Christian institutions of higher learning!

ICS has had a significant impact in the reformed, neo-Kuyperian community and beyond - I share a bit more here: https://open.substack.com/pub/danbeerens/p/an-essential-voice-in-the-conversation?r=dprv&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false
