Louisville Institute Accepting Applications for Research Projects to Benefit Churches in North America
Louisville Institute Accepting Applications for Research Projects to Benefit Churches in North America
The Louisville Institute offers the Project Grants for Researchers Program in support of research, reflection, and writing by academics and pastors that can contribute to the life of churches in North America.
The program is designed to support projects that can contribute to an enhanced understanding of important issues concerning Christian faith and life, pastoral leadership, and/or religious institutions. Projects might include short-term periods of research; consultations about one's research involving pastors and academics; or innovative projects that promise to strengthen the church. Particularly attractive to the Louisville Institute are projects that involve both academics and pastors in genuinely collaborative inquiry. All funded projects should involve substantial opportunity for learning that will benefit the church.
Proposed research projects may employ a variety of methodological perspectives, including but not limited to historical, systematic, and practical theology; the social sciences; history; ethics; or biblical studies. They may also be interdisciplinary in nature. All applicants should make clear how their project will contribute to the life of churches in North America.
Louisville Institute grant programs are open to both academic and pastoral leaders. Applicants must have earned the terminal degree in their chosen vocation (e.g., M.Div., Ph.D., Th.D.). For pastors, this is typically the Master of Divinity degree; for academics it is usually the Ph.D. or Th.D.
Grant amounts will not exceed $25,000.
