1 INSTITUTE for CHRISTIAN SPIRITUALITY at Lipscomb University
2 DISCOVER THE STORY The Institute for Christian Spirituality nurtures the personal discipleship of Christ followers by cultivating a deeper awareness and participation in the Holy Spirit s redemptive activity among us, within us, and through us in the world. ICS pursues this mission by exploring spiritually forming practices and facilitating the journey with others through spiritual friendships and spiritual direction.
3 THE WORK OF GOD The Institute defines Christian spirituality as the work of God in human lives. As disciples of Jesus in pursuit of His kingdom, we experience ongoing transformation by the activity of the Holy Spirit within us. We respond to that grace by embodying Christ personally and collectively in faith communities. All the programs of ICS focus on this loving work of God the Father in his Son Jesus who lives in us through the Holy Spirit. We do not know how to love God or neighbor redemptively except through Christ who lives in us. Christian spirituality encompasses different ways we can open our hearts and lives to give and receive the love of God.
4 THE WORK of the Institute
5 A C A D E M I C P R O G R A M S The Institute offers masters and diploma programs designed to deepen the spiritual life of participants so that they in turn can live more fruitful lives as servants in the kingdom of God. Each program integrates experiential and scholarly training, preparing students to ser ve the kingdom missionally in both professional and lay ministries such as preaching, youth work, adult ministries, spiritual direction, leadership, mentoring, and discipleship. The Doctor of Ministry degree in Missional Formation also equips people for teaching spiritual formation in a Christian university or seminary. VOCATIONAL SPIRITUALITY ICS encourages the integration of faith into all aspects of life. Workshops, seminars, and other experiences explore the missional nature of vocation.
6 SPIRITUAL DEEPENING ICS offers seminars and retreats that focus on personal spiritual growth. The Institute also encourages participation in the one-year extended certificate program. This experience provides immersion into a praying community to share this particular spiritual journey, two residential retreats that provide fellowship and materials towards a deeper walk with God, and a structured mentoring relationship to provide additional conversation, prayer, and other resources throughout the year.
7 SPIRITUAL DIRECTION The Institute trains both paid and volunteer church leaders and their families to guide others more effectively in spiritual formation through seminars and retreats. ICS also offers an 18-month residential program in spiritual direction that prepares people for the ministry of oneon-one spiritual companionship. The program provides directed readings, contact with a spiritual mentor, two residential retreats with other participants and staff, integrative response papers, and a supervised internship in spiritual direction.
8 CONFERENCES Regular conferences for the general public bring nationally known speakers on Christian spirituality to the Lipscomb campus. These opportunities allow for dialogue and reflection on living out God s kingdom practices in particular situations. RESEARCH, WRITING& SCHOLARSHIP The Institute shares the work of its faculty and students as well as other resources that promote the spiritual health of individuals and churches. These materials include writings, research, grant work related to the mission of ICS, and other dialogues with the larger Christian community about Christian spirituality. CONSULTATION The faculty and fellows of ICS are available for consultation with ministers, churches, and other groups who desire spiritual guidance and training.
9 ICS owes much to the work of Dr. Carl McKelvey. His dream of providing a place of spiritual renewal for weary believers, particularly preachers and elders, has helped bring about this moment. The Center f or S p i r i t u a l R e n e w a l began in 1989 under his direction. It offers various opportunities for renewal through prayer, study, and seminars. In 1999, the Center moved into the Longview Manor and was empowered with financial support by a generous endowment. In 2009, discussions of how to enhance the ministr y of the Center led to the founding of ICS. Carl s programs at Longview will continue to be one of the many offerings of the Institute.
