Will you support us financially as we enter 2025?
As we celebrate our tenth anniversary year, the Davenant Institute has accomplished extraordinary things on a very modest budget, by God’s grace and the aid of our army of friends and donors.
Would you consider a year-end financial gift to support the work of The Davenant Institute in 2022?
Help us match a $32,000 pledge to build for wisdom
Dear friends,
Ronald Reagan had a plaque on his desk that read “There is no limit to what a man can accomplish if he does not care who gets the credit.” Over the past decade I have spent navigating the world of Christian scholarship, I have returned over and over to meditate on this arresting maxim. We live in a world obsessed with credit. Unlike centuries past, ours is a world of intellectual property, a world fixated with the curious notion that you can patent an idea, claiming exclusive credit for it and controlling where it goes, who gets to use it, and how much they have to pay. In academia, this fixation means an obsession with the new—after all, you can’t very well claim credit for an old idea, much less publish it.
