Sharing a passion for theology and ministry

The CPT hosts gatherings of local pastors who meet quarterly to discuss the vision of the pastor theologian, and especially its implications for their specific ministries and communities. Facilitated by our CPT fellows, these groups have no formal education requirement, but rather call for a passionate commitment to thinking theologically, reading reflectively, and building inter-denominational relationships that serve to mutually encourage each pastor in his or her ministry setting.

We currently have cohorts meeting in over twenty locations across the United States. If you have received an invitation to join one of these cohorts, please click the button below to register and receive your materials.

Please note: The cost to participate in a local cohort is $99 for the year. These funds help cover a portion of the cost of running the program, which supplements funds from grants and private donors. In return, the CPT covers the cost of materials and provides a food budget for each group.
