Lilly Endowment aims to deepen and enrich the religious lives of American Christians by supporting congregations and their leadership. It focuses on ensuring congregations have leaders who are wise, faithful, and well-prepared, helps Christians draw on their theological traditions to face contemporary challenges and live their faith fully, and fosters public understanding of religion's role in civic well-being.
The Louisville Institute Postdoctoral Fellowship offers a two-year placement, typically as a visiting professor at ATS-accredited schools in the U.S. and Canada, for scholars interested in Christian faith studies, ministry practices, religious trends, and related areas. It targets doctoral students or recent graduates passionate about theological education. The program includes a $30,000 annual stipend, insurance, housing, and moving benefits, with required relocation for most placements. Fellows engage in peer mentorship, participate in the Vocation of the Theological Educator Initiative with three yearly gatherings for vocational and professional development, fostering dialogues on theological education, pedagogy, and public theology. All VTE gathering expenses in Louisville, KY are covered.
