Members of the public, pastors, and high schoolers will have opportunities to learn about Christians as “culture creators” when Christian author and professor Scot McKnight comes to Hillsboro on Monday and Tuesday for the inaugural “Exaudio: Listen and Live” lectureship sponsored by Tabor College.

A two-part series open to the public will be at 7 p.m. Monday and 11 a.m. Tuesday at Hillsboro Mennonite Brethren Church.

McKnight also will speak at a Monday lunch-and-learn for Wichita-area pastors, and be part of a two-day ministry encounter experience for high school students interested in ministry.

A professor of New Testament at Northern Seminary, Lombard, Illinois, McKnight has authored more than 50 books, including the award-winning “The Jesus Creed.”

Tabor Bible department chairman Douglas Miller said the new annual lecture series will focus on expressions of Christian discipleship.
