Leading an Institution as a Spiritual Enterprise

About this Course

This course equips Christian institutional leaders to steward their organizations as spiritually vibrant communities. Drawing from Scripture and decades of pastoral and presidential experience, Dr. Michael Pawelke unpacks the high calling of leadership in biblical higher education. It is not simply an administrative function but a deeply spiritual responsibility. In these lessons, you will explore how to cultivate spiritual vibrancy on campus, cast a transformative vision for students, shepherd faculty and staff with pastoral care, anchor their communities in prayer and Scripture, and multiply spiritual leadership across all levels – from the boardroom to the classroom.
