The Gurian
Institute provides a
number of training opportunities and modalities for Christian churches
and communities. A Gurian
Institute staff member or team can
come to your community to provide professional development, and/or you
can send your staff members to our summer institute in Colorado
Springs. Our training has been inspiring and practically
applicable in churches, religious schools, and faith-based
initiatives. Please contact Kathy@gurianinstitute.com
to discuss collaboration.

“The Following Jesus Discipleship Programs for boys and girls that we
are creating together will not only help the families in our Community
of Grace church in Arizona, but families and churches
worldwide. Our mission is to create a one year confirmation
program that inspires our young adults in ways similar to a bar or bat
mitzvah Jewish children experience on their way to adulthood, but in a
Christian context, for Christian boys and girls of 12 – 14, and with
discipleship to Jesus as the long-term goal.”
