Abstract
Drawing from their personal experiences and professional trainings, campus tour guides are uniquely positioned to introduce a theology of place to prospective students. From a qualitative paradigm, this project investigated the lives, work, and meaning-making of ten tour guides at a Christian university. Guides felt connected to their campus community and experienced God’s presence everywhere, privileged realities they – through symbols, objects, and interactions – strategically shared and subtly normalized for tour-goers. This study illuminates the challenges of mission-based practice, highlighting how students navigated these tensions, and encourages practitioners to think theologically about the campus places they work to promote.
