Church Leadership Excellence
With this track, clergy will receive the enhanced knowledge, skills, and motivation to lead churches to increased service, vitality, and growth. Church Leadership Excellence focuses on the personal development and public practices of those called to lead the church toward the vision of God’s reign.
A serious engagement with contemporary secular leadership studies is held in tension with rigorous theological exploration. Participants examine the biblical, theological, and ethical foundations of ministry through the lens of leadership to enhance their own fruitful practice of leadership. The combined resources of the Wesley faculty, the Lewis Center for Church Leadership and exemplary practitioners bring depth and energy to this track.
Prospective students may either contact Lewis Center Director Dr. F. Douglas Powe, Jr., dpowe@wesleyseminary.edu or Dr. Lovett H. Weems, Jr., professor of church leadership and Senior Consultant at Lewis Center, lovettw@wesleyseminary.edu with questions about the track or call the Lewis Center at (202) 664-5700.
