"Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--his good, pleasing, and perfect will." -- Romans 12:2

"But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect." -- 1 Peter 3:15

"For this is what the Lord has commanded us: 'I have made you a light for the Gentiles, that you may bring salvation to the ends of the earth'" -- Acts 13:47

Transforming and renewing the mind. Being prepared to respond. Being a light to the world.

The University of Missouri Christian Faculty and Staff Fellowship (MU-CFSF) is an association of Mizzou faculty and staff seeking to encourage and strengthen each other in our Christian faith, to minister to our campus community, and to promote thoughtful dialogue on issues related to Christianity and society.Our members come from many Christian denominations and represent departments, centers, and institutes from across the University campus. We share a commitment to historic Christianity and the belief that Christians should play visible, important roles in the modern University.
