Theological Horizons was established as a not-for-profit ministry in 1990 when Karen Wright Marsh and Charles Marsh became convinced that both vibrant theological scholarship and authentic Christian community were needed both inside and beyond the university.
From its beginnings, Theological Horizons has developed research and writing grants for students and scholars, Bible studies, lectures and seminars.
In 2000, Theological Horizons established its center at the Bonhoeffer House in Charlottesville, Virginia.
Theological Horizons has expanded its programs to include the prestigious Scoper Lectures in Christian Thought, undergraduate Fellows programs supported by Lilly Endowment, Deeper Dialogues @UVA, and various national and local initiatives supporting Christians and seekers in academia.
