New college with Christian aims and ethos launches

Dr Timothy Edwards

In response to the increasingly prevalent liberal and progressive ideologies appearing in universities, a “new and unique” Christian college has been launched.

Selden College will be based in Oxford and has a twofold vision: to recover the heritage of Christian higher education, and to glorify God in this arena.

While numerous Christian higher education colleges offer the option to study theology, mission, and pastoral subjects, there is reportedly no distinctively Christian higher education colleges offering an in-person wider academic curriculum – Selden College hopes to fill this gap.
