Equipping leaders, helping churches thrive

Continuing Abilene Christian University’s long tradition of serving churches and Christian leaders, we in the Siburt Institute for Church Ministry offer a wide array of resources and experiences designed to nurture spiritual growth, spark theological imagination, and encourage the pursuit of God’s mission in the world. We also create networking spaces for ministry transitions, consulting, and learning. Ultimately, we hope that the services we provide will help local congregations and the church at large to flourish.
