Integrating faith and social sciences for personal and organizational resilience
The Center for Transforming Engagement is a PNW-based nonprofit born out of The Seattle School of Theology and Psychology. Our groundbreaking work and research focuses on building the personal, team, and organizational resilience needed to face the challenges of a fractured world in a post-Christendom context. The Center's leadership comes from a variety of faith traditions and our work is cross-denominational, serving clergy, nonprofit leaders, artists, therapists and others in the helping professions. Our methods are deeply rooted in traditional Christian messages of hope, restoration and relationship, yet we recognize that the old ways of doing ministry need a reboot, so we offer alternatives to traditional models of leadership that have caused harm. We long for a paradigm shift that allows us to dig deeply into our call in a fresh and more sustaining way and we are reimaging what ministry and leadership can look like within our complex, modern context.
