Carkner is a meta-educator with postgraduate students and faculty at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada: promoting faith and culture dialogue, blogging, and offering thought-provoking YouTube webinars. He is chairperson of the prestigious scholarly inter-disciplinary lecture series UBC Graduate and Faculty Christian Forum (https://ubcgfcf.com) that has run for some 35 years. He holds a Bachelor of Life Science in Human Physiology from Queen’s University; a Master of Divinity from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, and a PhD in philosophical theology from University of Wales. He has also read extensively on the subject of science and theology at Regent College. He is the author of The Great Escape from Nihilism; Mapping the Future; and co-author of Ten Myths about Christianity (in 20 languages) with Michael Green. The poster series entitled Ten Myths about Christianity, which was invented at the University of Guelph through an IVCF chapter, sparked lively discussions on campuses across North America and Europe for decades. Carkner works out and loves to hike and bike with his wife and friends. Early in their relationship, Gordon and Ute spent seven days hiking down into the Grand Canyon with a wilderness group. The couple love to host many different hospitality events with students, faculty, and friends in their home and on campus. They attend Westside Church in downtown Vancouver. Gordon participated in the first European Conference of IFES which brought together students from Eastern and Western Europe.view less
