About this cohort
The Spiritual Formation and Relational Neuroscience cohort will foster transformation in the spiritual lives of students and help them gain the resources to help the transformation of others.
Focused on nurturing a secure attachment with God as a means for integrating relational neuroscience and spiritual formation, this cohort will prepare students to minister to a culture that is both suffering within a mental health crisis while also having deep spiritual longings for connection.
The first year will focus on attachment theory and theological anthropology.
The second year will combine the spiritual pathways of the ancient tradition of spiritual formation and the neural pathways opened up by relational neuroscience.
The third year will move into mission by focusing on the connections between theology, therapeutic culture, and trauma, centered on creating communities of care and transformation.
