2024-2025 Spiritual Life Director Cohorts
Director of Spiritual Life. School Chaplain. Worldview Director. We go by many names and likely have just as varied responsibilities. But what we all have in common is that we've been uniquely tasked with helping our school communities have greater vibrancy and love for the gospel of Jesus.
Unfortunately, many Spiritual Life Directors feel like they're on islands ... not fully understanding their roles or having clear outlets for knowing how be transformative agents in the spiritual lives of our schools. In the same way that Jesus established a community – a Body made up of diverse members – to be instruments of furthering His kingdom, our hope is to establish a community of Spiritual Life Directors who can grow and learn from each other. So we, too, can be instruments of spiritual transformation in our schools.
What you can Expect
Cohorts will meet once a month online, but the cohorts will be designed to provide on-going conversation throughout the month via email. Cohort members will also receive weekly emails from Renew Education, targeted toward the tasks and opportunities of today's Spiritual Life Directors.
Facilitation will be structured around objectives and goals, but will be informed by on-going expressed needs and thoughts. However, we'll always dedicate a significant portion of our time together to open questions and conversation, to share resources, and to generate ideas of how we can collectively further spiritual vibrancy within our school communities.
As a part of their registration, all cohort members will receive a copy of Noah's book, Jesus Above School as an additional resource.
Cohorts begin in June and will continue throughout the academic year. Registration will open in March.
