The Foundations of Faith Formation Cohort is a guided learning experience for ministry leaders who want to strengthen the core practices and strategies that shape lifelong faith. This cohort is designed to help you move beyond programs and trends to focus on the essential foundations that form faith in children, youth, and families.

Whether you serve in a small church, a multi-staff ministry, or a volunteer-led context, this cohort will help you clarify what effective faith formation looks like in your setting—and how to lead toward it with intention.

What This Cohort Is

This 8 week cohort combines expert insight, peer learning, and practical application to ensure learning leads to real change.

Throughout the experience, participants will engage in:

  • Intentional conversations with senior leaders at the beginning and end of the cohort to align vision, expectations, and outcomes

  • Self-paced video content that introduces key foundations of effective faith formation

  • Facilitated cohort discussions that allow leaders to process learning with peers facing similar ministry realities

  • Guided reflection and practical exercises that culminate in a ministry action plan, clearly guiding next steps for the next 1–2 years

The cohort is structured to respect your time while still creating meaningful space for learning, conversation, and application.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN

Participants will explore the foundational elements that consistently lead to healthy, sustainable faith formation, including:

  • Clarifying the core convictions and theological anchors that shape faith formation

  • Cultivating practices that help faith take root and grow over time

  • Understanding how relationships, community, and intergenerational connection form faith

  • Creating environments where faith is practiced, not just taught

  • Aligning ministry strategies, programs, and rhythms with long-term formation goals

  • Evaluating what is working, what needs to change, and where to focus next

Rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions, this cohort equips you to discern and apply these foundations within your unique ministry context.
