Whether you are seeking to continue your ministerial candidate coursework or grow your ministry skill set through enrichment classes, there are many options available in 2022.

The Love Required of Us

This course has been postponed.

Starting on Tuesday, January 18th and continuing for 10 weeks, our Conference Ministerial Candidates (CMCs) are invited to join Liz Cornell as she leads a discussion of race and racial reconciliation within a Christian context using her book, The Love Required of Us. It’s an opportunity to learn about and discuss the history of racism, how it has socialized all of us, and how it impacts us today. Students will use spiritual practices to help deepen relationships both with God and with each other and engage in follow up exercises to build self-awareness.

  • Course is taught online
  • Intended for CMCs
  • Tuesdays for 10 weeks, starting January 18, 6-8pm PST
  • Cost: $75, does not include required materials
