Why I Teach at SPU

凯文Neuhouser, Professor of Sociology

“I teach because I love learning and I love empowering students by helping them better understand the social world that has shaped them so that they are prepared to reshape that world into one where God’s justice and grace can grow. I believe that sociology is a Christian calling because it can help us live more faithfully in a beautifully complicated  and hurting world.”
