Just a few weeks ago, four of our founders were ab Just a few weeks ago, four of our founders were able to gather with Tim, our Director, to reconnect, share about their histories, and also share their hearts and hopes for the BSC as it continues to develop and grow. 

Thank you Ralph Amateis, Bobby Grisso, Dean Bork, and Don Mckeon (not pictured) for taking the time to come through the BSC and spend some time with us!

If you haven’t heard the news yet, we’ve hired If you haven’t heard the news yet, we’ve hired a new Executive Director! 

Through the hard work of a wonderful search committee made up of stakeholders and board members, the Lord has brought Dr. Tim Johnson to the Bradley Study Center! 

Hailing from Wisconsin (with a love for cheese curds and Sprecher root beer), Tim brings a wealth of leadership experience, enthusiasm, and vision to the study center. After pastoring a church for nearly two decades, Tim, along with his wife, Kathryn, made the decision to move down to Blacksburg to begin leading the BSC. We are so grateful to have him here, and we look forward to what the Lord has in store for the BSC in this next season! 

This past week, we hosted a welcome reception for Tim and Kathryn, and through that, we had a chance to hear more about their backgrounds, faith journeys, and path to the BSC. If you weren’t able to make it to that event but would be interested in connecting with Tim (or Kathryn), let us know!

Presenting: our newly repaved parking lot!!🚗 T Presenting: our newly repaved parking lot!!🚗

Thanks to many donors who came together to fully fund our Giving Tuesday “Pave our Lot” campaign, we were able to repave our parking area this January—a much needed project! No more potholes, rocks, or unclear lines for parking students and visitors!

We are so grateful for the generosity of our community, near and far, for making this happen! It has allowed our space to become more accessible and welcoming for students, faculty, and community members.

We’ll be closed this coming week for VT spring break, but come by later in March to experience our new lot along with a free cup of coffee or tea!

Dr. Walton has written dozens of books on understanding the Bible within its context, including “The Lost World of Genesis One.”

Thanks @thebridgevachurch for helping make this visit possible!

Throwback to a few weekends ago when we hosted our Throwback to a few weekends ago when we hosted our first ever Fellows Retreat! This overnight trip to nearby @williejack1957 camp facility was a great time of fellowship and exploring spiritual formation practices as we jump into a new semester of studies. We loved getting to connect more with students and see them connect with each other!
We are SO thankful for our awesome team of volunte We are SO thankful for our awesome team of volunteers who showed up this past Saturday to deep clean our building!! 

This group came together and worked incredibly hard scrubbing baseboards, mopping, cleaning our kitchen appliances, organizing our cabinets, cleaning our trash cans, and more. 

While programs and student engagement are at the center of what we do, it takes many people working behind the scenes to create an atmosphere where that can happen! 

We are excited to open our (now cleaned) doors once again to students, faculty, and community members tomorrow! Come by, grab a cup of coffee, and hang out!📚☕️
