As a Fulbright scholar at the University of Göttingen, Ted Runyon learned from Germany's celebrated theologians. The experience shaped his career, landing him a teaching job at the Candler School of Theology, and convinced him of the great value of scholarships.

The emeritus professor and his wife, Cindy, an alumna who's retired from a long career at Pitts Theology Library, have created gift annuities to fund an Emory scholarship for visiting Göttingen students. The Runyons believe service is an essential part of faith, and education is simply essential.
