ECLC3110: Leadership, Vocation, and Christian Practice

This course equips adult learners to explore leadership as a calling rooted in the practices of the Christian faith. With particular attention to the Wesleyan tradition and within a spirit of generous orthodoxy, students will examine how rhythms of worship and commitments to justice form the character, vision, and skills of leaders. This course emphasizes leadership not only as influence or authority but as service, discernment, and community transformation. Alongside critical reflection on Scripture, tradition, and experience, students will discern their own sense of calling and cultivate rhythms of leadership that are sustainable, faithful, and attentive to the needs of their communities. Students will engage in practices that shape faithful leaders, critically reflect on their own sense of vocation, and develop practical habits and strategies for leading with integrity, wisdom, and courage in diverse contexts.
