Ministry Cohorts
Ministry cohorts allow you to sample many theological themes, offering peer learning with your ministry context in mind. Scholars have chosen a specific lens on a particular topic and share their expertise through digital content you watch on your own time. Four monthly online meetings are interspersed, where you and your cohort members gather for facilitated discussion with an experienced church leader.
Cohorts support lifelong learning and are for anyone- licensed pastors and ordained clergy, chaplains, Christian educators, lay leaders and anyone interested in the topic. UCC members will recognize the Marks of Ministry woven throughout the cohorts, though anyone from any denomination, or no denomination, is welcome to attend.
