Science as Christian Vocation

PASTCF’s Daniel W. Martin “Science as Christian Vocation” recognition acknowledges scientists or persons in science-related professions, such as engineers or science teachers, who perform their professional work as a calling from God.

In considering nominees, the Board is looking particularly for two qualities. (1) In what ways has the nominee’s Christian commitment affected how he or she understands and performs his or her professional work, and (2) in what ways have insights gained from his or her professional work enhanced and enriched the nominee’s understanding of and commitment to the Christian faith.
