The name may be playful, but our mission is serious: bridging the false divides that too often keep us apart—faith vs. science, social justice vs. witness, business vs. ministry, art vs. STEM, culture-making vs. church planting, spiritual formation vs. theology, Hollywood vs. higher education, and professional studies vs. the liberal arts.

We dream of fostering a movement of friends committed to leading lives of selfless service, shaped by both the life of the mind and the life of the Spirit. If you aspire to be as ambidextrous in life and leadership as Inigo Montoya was with his sword, you’re in the right place.

En-garde!
