About Harris Institute
The World Is Our Classroom
Our vision is to produce “world-class experiential learning, thoughtful leadership, and Christian service for global impact.”
We believe that learning knows no borders. The world itself is our classroom. We travel, teach, and learn together. Our mission is to explore the interconnection between theology and practice, nurturing leaders who embody education, service, and Christ-centered leadership.
We have established three initial Global Conceptual Centers as part of this vision:
- Oxford & Cambridge (college towns in the UK): Convening two Global Think Tanks that gather leaders and scholars to address pressing issues of faith, leadership, and the public square.
- Accra & Kumasi (urban cities in Ghana): Leading experiential learning journeys that foster cross-cultural understanding and youth empowerment—through museums, slave castles, village outreach, Ghanaian worship and traditional cuisine, drumming, and dance.
- Ruhija (highlands in Uganda): Supporting the Bakiga Tribe to provide primary and adult education, orphan care, medical assistance, sustainable farming practices, and business development.
These select destinations model the broad landscapes that make up the cities of the world. While they are the initial global centers, our vision is to establish more of them in various regions of the world, on all of the continents.
Through our global centers, we are mentoring teenagers, cultivating a global community of learning, and raising up leaders to advance the mission of Christ worldwide through education, leadership, and service.

WHAT HARRIS INSTITUTE FELLOWS SAY ABOUT THE COLLOQUY.
The colloquy set against the academic aura of Oxford far exceeded my imagination for what I thought was in store. Convening at Oxford with other scholars of faith was an experience that will never leave me!”
Being in the room with some of the most brilliant theological minds of our times was surreal! I will never forget the experience. If the Harris Institute invites you to attend, I suggest you take advantage of this unparalleled opportunity.
The enlightening discussions provided fresh opportunities to delve deeper into my faith and academics. I highly recommend this unique convergence of scholarship and spirituality for anyone looking to expand their understanding and connections.
The Oxford Colloquy was easily one of my most transformative experiences. It was a spiritual and intellectual experience in an awesome yet intimate setting. We learned, laughed, and broke bread.
