Continuing Education for Pastors and Christian Educators
Join us for continuing education options through Eastern Mennonite Seminary.
Teaching for Christian Community
How can teaching practices cultivate community? This interactive online course combines
educational theory and practice with deep theological reflection. Participants will
consider aims of Christian education, how various teaching methods support or undercut
theological commitments, explicit and implicit content, and how mutuality, authority
and harm impact learning environments. Tools gained will help participants propose
strategies for how teaching can build healthier forms of Christian community in their
own contexts.
