Center for Calling and Theological Formation

Our mission is to serve the body of Christ in the vital tasks of teaching and discipleship through education, training, and resourcing.

The main event hosted by the Center for Calling and Theological Formation is the Summer Journey experience for leading high school students. We also sponsor an annual Youth Forum event for pastors and youth leaders each October. Feel free to look around our website and contact us with any questions.

The Center for Calling and Theological Formation (CCTF) is supported in part by a major grant from the Lilly Endowment. Northwest University's Center for Calling and Theological Formation has a dual purpose:

  1. To educate and equip students in the process of theological development and vocational understanding of their life’s work and service.
  2. To serve churches and ministers, as they engage in these vital matters.
