Welcome to the Center for Excellence in Christian Education, a nexus of creativity and innovation in educational leadership, research, and practice.

About

Whether we are pastors, educators, congregational leaders, commissioned ruling elders, or scholars, it is our collective voices, experiences, wisdom, and creativity that can move us through the best of what was, and into the faithfulness of what will be.

Practices

Our center offers pedagogical strategies for teaching in diverse contexts of ministry while promoting and encouraging educators, pastors, congregational, and community leaders to explore, deepen, and retool their gifts for ministry.

Leadership

Sustaining and equipping all those who educate, whatever their level of theological education or vocational experience.

Research

Creating space and opportunities for faculty and practitioners to engage in critical conversations that develop innovative, effective, and imaginative theories, models, and methods.

Don’t miss this Special Edition Collaborative Conversation with Dr. Brad Wigger. Gather your parent group together to watch and discuss Dr. Wigger’s newest book “When Children Imagine God: Conversations with Church Kids.” The insights from this book remind us that children are more than the future of the church. The wisdom they offer us can help transform our approach to faith formation in the church and at home right now.
