Rooted: Educator Worldview Retreat 24’ - Save the Date!
June 24-27, 2024 - Black Mountain, NC
Some days it feels like secular culture is winning. Yet, Scripture draws us back to a pivotal premise – God’s truth prevails. Even so, educators around the world are asking how to more effectively engage students in the spiritual formation
journey and help develop deeper roots in the flourishing soil of a biblical worldview. ACSI and the Colson Center have partnered together to offer a “worldview retreat” to answer this leading question and provide valuable resources
for: a) developing a Christlike culture, (b) facilitating healthy faith formation, (c) providing tools to engage secular ideology, and expanding best practice around a clear and consistent application of biblical integration across all subjects.
Flourish Deeper: Spiritual Formation & the NEW Flourishing Faith Index
February 8, 2024
School Leaders are engaging around the importance of spiritual formation in an ever-changing culture and among a myriad of voices. Understanding what flourishing faith in Christian schools looks like, how students grow in their faith, and how Christian schools help nurture and promote spiritual growth is a primary and foundational issue. Join this national event as school leaders and content experts collaborate around the challenges and opportunities of faith formation and experience the unpacking of the NEW Flourishing Faith Index (Research & Instrument). Together, we will engage around integral components: Head (Faithful Worldview), Heart (Faithful Fruit), & Hands (Faithful Deeds) while exploring implications for practice.
ACSI Leadership Network Meetings (formerly District Meetings) are an opportunity for you as a school leader to meet together with local peers to build connections and learn together.
ACSI Student Activities enhances learning beyond the classroom by giving students the opportunity to develop the skills necessary for Christian leadership by engaging in enriching events and experiences designed to impact educational and spiritual growth. Learn more about how your students can get involved in the 2023-24 school year.
