The centrality of L'Abri teaching is that Biblical Christianity is true, and that it offers sufficient evidence to say "it is 'The Truth'". It can be proclaimed and known without committing intellectual suicide or simply having to say 'just believe'. Because Christ is Lord of all life, Christianity speaks to all areas, not only to that which might be called 'religious'. True spirituality is seen in lives, which, through Christ's redemption, are free to be fully human. Therefore, Christians can and should realize the implications and relevance of a Biblical worldview in the arts, sciences, politics, etc. We want to encourage the development of Christian intellect and scholarship among the faculty and student body at St. Olaf.

We define interfaith as bringing together people of different beliefs in order to build deeper understanding and respect for each other and our worldviews. So a bunch of words that don’t mean much? We hope not. Interfaith is about getting to know your neighbor, seeking to learn what the person next to you believes and why, asking how one’s beliefs influence one’s life. It’s not necessarily about coming to a conclusion as to whether all religions are the same or all belief systems are fundamentally opposed to each other, but rather developing an appreciation for different beliefs and the commonalities we share. In talking to people committed to and open to sharing their faith/non-faith, we believe people will not only gain new understanding, but will be able to grow in their own beliefs. The better we understand one another and ourselves, the more likely our beliefs will act as bridges rather than barriers.

People with ASD have difficulty understanding facial expression, body language, and everyday social context that comes naturally to most. As if middle school and high school weren't tough enough for a regular teen, imagine how hard it would be for someone with autism. Awesome Club is a social skills program for kids with Autism Spectrum Disorder and other disabilities. At Awesome Club each week, we do outdoor activities, play group games, hang out, and have a great time! It sounds simple, but the value of social skills programs like Awesome Club is immeasurable. Providing a social atmosphere for kids with autism to hang out and act like typical teens is extremely instrumental in improving their quality of life because it gives them the opportunity to build friendships. These programs boost the self-esteem of individuals with ASD and prepare them for life after high school when communication is key to success in the work field and in life.
