Into a Far Country
Faith and the Intellectual Quest in the 21st Century

The inaugural Scots Lectures (renamed in 2015 as 'The Clark Lectures') were delivered by Professor John G. Stackhouse, Jr., who holds the Sangwoo Youtong Chee Chair of Theology and Culture at Regent College, within the University of British Columbia, Vancouver. He is an award-winning scholar and public communicator who has spent years adventurously mapping complex cultural terrain, identifying both its worthy achievements and its zones of confusion. Read more about Professor Stackhouse here. 

Video of Professor Stackhouse's Lectures can be viewed below.

Professor Stackhouse also spoke in a range of settings at The Scots College, as well as making a number of contributions to debates in the media over knowledge, education and religion. These included appearances on ABC TV's Q&A, in The Australian, Radio 2GB and 2UE, Hope 103.2 and Radio National.
