You Are What You Achieve

karenmorris

You are What you Achieve! is a panel discussion put on by the Law and Medicine faculties. It will involve 3 members on a panel – all Christian doctors or lawyers. Each member of the panel speaks briefly about the idea of achievement and self-worth. This is followed by QandA. The target audience are Medicine and Law faculties since they are mostly affected by this ideology. See ‘The Achievement Addiction’ by Justine Toh. This giveaway size book could be used as a form of invitation.

Forums- Careers and Life

Ask Christian lecturers or workers to speak on an aspect of how they integrate their life and faith. Present a positive apologetic for Christianity by describing how Jesus makes betters sense of the world than any other alternative. Eg What is the doctrine of humanity that undergirds the secular discipline? What is its picture of human flourishing? Compare and contrast with a biblical view. Using lecturers also lets people know that there are Christians they respect academically/intellectually.
