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.

Stories help us understand who we are, where we come from and the values by which we live. We are a storied people. Baptism is our first identity story and the genesis of our identity. It is the inauguration into our life of discipleship. As families and congregations, let’s explore ways to celebrate, remember, and deepen the meaning of our baptism.
