Pressing Issues for the Global Church
Sentries and Towers: Cam Anderson’s Art Beckons at Overture Center
Cam’s current exhibit at the Overture Center features two- and three-dimensional art pieces that evoke towering white pines scourged by fire; an abandoned iron ore mine; a granary; and a chapel at a beloved camp.
New Podcast from Upper House
With Faith In Mind is intended for academically-minded, ecumenical Christians. Our goal is to engage listeners with a thoughtful and faith-informed perspective on important issues and big questions that our society faces. We do this by having real conversations with people who have great stories and expertise. In our first series, titled “Christian Education at the Crossroads.” We’re interviewing top leaders and scholars in the Christian education space.
Earth Day is here. Why Christians Should Be the *Most* Enthusiastic
The 53rd celebration of Earth Day is Saturday, April 22, 2023. But most congregations — and most evangelicals by extension — will hardly notice. Why? Because they don’t know how to unleash Earth Day’s spiritual significance for the life of the church.

We are in an exciting season of growth; we are hiring for two positions and invite you to help us identify potential candidates.
Hospitality and Guest Services Coordinator (FT)
Administration Office Assistant (PT)
Building a dynamic staff team and healthy organizational culture is something we care deeply about and work on continually. Upper House exists to bring the gospel to bear on the life of the university and the Madison community at large by curating meaningful gatherings and creating thoughtful resources. If you know someone who fits one of the two roles and embraces our mission, we would love to get to know them.
