The Vision
The Theological Horizons Fellows Program supports students as they wrestle with concepts of calling through constraints and commitments, reflecting Theological Horizons’ desire to discover Christ at the intersection of faith, thought, and life. Fellows are selected through a competitive application process and, except for the Perkins Fellows, must be Fourth Years who will soon transition from college.
Horizons Fellows: Vocational Discernment througH Relational Discipleship
Perkins Fellows: Vocational Discernment through Community Engagement
“The Fellows program for me was one of the first places where I felt welcomed in my questioning and doubt. The first place where being a follower of Jesus never had to mean that I had my faith figured out or my life plans nailed down. The first place where my mind was encouraged to engage fully - not selectively - with biblical truths and their implications. I am SO immensely grateful for the safety, the haven, that it provided me. My year in the Fellows program didn’t answer all my questions or solve all my problems. But it was a year of being seen, being known, and being deeply loved by the Fellows, my mentor, and Christy. ”
Participation in the Fellows is by application each spring.
Deadline for ‘24-’25 is Monday, March 11th. Applications accepted after, space permitting.

Program director, Christy Yates, was invited to write a chapter in the book, Campus Ministry: Finding Meaning and Purpose in Higher Education (2022). Her writing details the Fellows programs and the emerging philosophies of vocational discernment that have arisen.
