Brazos Fellows seeks to prepare women and men for lives of mature Christian discipleship.
Having launched in 2018, the program serves recent college graduates and others who are considering future work in the academy, the church, or other areas of ministry and service (lay or ordained) and who desire to be formed through:
|
1. THEOLOGICAL TRAINING
Cultivating Deep Theological Reflection Through a variety of educational experiences – a course of study, guided learning, guest lectures, and retreats – fellows gain a theological framework for their future work, study, and ministry. |
2. SPIRITUAL DISCIPLINES
Incorporating Vital Christian Practices Fellows commit to a Rule of Life and participate individually and communally in ancient Christian practices. Together these disciplines aim at personal and communal growth in Christ-likeness. |
|
3. VOCATIONAL DISCERNMENT
Preparing for Your Unique Calling Through prayer, mentoring, and professional coaching, fellows will grow in awareness of their strengths and unique design in order to discern God’s various calls on their lives. |
4. LIFE TOGETHER
Participating in Shared Life In addition to joining the life of Christ Church, fellows eat, pray, and discuss together as a cohort, all the while seeking the flourishing of transformative friendships and genuine community. |
Ultimately, we hope for fellows to love God with their heart, soul, and mind, and to love their neighbor as themselves. The program will prepare them to step forward with confidence and a desire to follow Christ in their life and work.
