Oct 28, 2024 | News - Academics

NNU is proud to announce that Dr. Justin Clardie, Professor of Political Science, will represent NNU at the upcoming “Christian-Informed International Relations: Thinking, Teaching and Practicing” conference, hosted by Lee University in April 2025. The event is supported by a $5,000 grant from the Council for Christian Colleges and Universities (CCCU) and will feature a three-day collaboration between faculty from several CCCU schools. 

Dr. Clardie’s participation in the conference highlights NNU’s commitment to academic excellence and faith integration, showcasing the University’s dedication to meaningful contributions in both local and global communities. His involvement reflects NNU’s mission to engage in thoughtful discourse on the intersection of Christianity and international relations, equipping students and scholars alike to apply Christian values to global challenges. 

“I am excited to present at the conference and represent NNU along with colleagues at other CCCU schools as we apply Christian values and principles in our understanding of international relations,” said Dr. Clardie. “We’ll explore how to approach international relations from a Christian perspective, particularly in teaching and application.” 

The conference will include panels, workshops and a public forum focused on the biblical foundations of international relations and its practical applications.  

“We’re pleased that Dr. Clardie will represent NNU at this event,” said NNU President Joel Pearsall, “as the University continues its longstanding tradition of contributing to the broader academic and Christian communities.”
