The Office of Academic Affairs is proud to announce that this year’s Unafraid Symposium will take place on Wednesday, April 1, 2026.
The Unafraid Symposium is PSR’s annual celebration of academic excellence, inviting students to present their strongest scholarly work in a live, disciplined academic setting with faculty response.
This year’s symposium will feature three panels: Sermons as Public Theology, Theology in Practice (DMin Scholarship), and Truth-Telling in Contested Times. Selected students will present focused 10-12 minute papers, followed by faculty synthesis and moderated questions.
If you have written a paper, sermon, or project in the last two semesters that represents your best thinking, we encourage you to apply. More details and the Call for Applications will be shared soon.
We hope you’ll consider bringing your work forward as part of this formative scholarly experience.
