Ministers’ Salary Survey
We are already making plans for our 2026 Ministers’ Salary Survey. This annual, nationwide survey assists ministers and churches in the Churches of Christ as they negotiate salary and compensation. To receive an invitation to participate in the survey, please subscribe to the mailing list by checking “ministers’ salary survey emails” as an area of interest.
Selah Certificate
In 2024, we launched our Selah Certificate in Spiritual Direction. If you are interested in the ministry of spiritual formation, we will be starting a new cohort in February 2026. This program is ideal for those looking to develop their skills in spiritual direction and deepen their contemplative life. See more details by clicking on the button below!

The Siburt Institute is recognized by the Association of Professional Chaplains (APC) as an endorser of chaplains seeking professional certification. We sponsor a Chaplains Fellowship, publish a bi-monthly newsletter, and hold quarterly webinars on various topics related to the ministry of chaplaincy.
