Anti-Racism

As pastoral leaders, the call to resist evil in all its manifestations can be challenging and wearying to our souls. The Center for Faith and Imagination is here to help. We are committed to resisting racism and white supremacy by providing faith leaders with resources for individual and communal accountability, anti-racist dialogue and actions, and spiritual self-care.

Highlighted Resource

The Lilly Endowment National Clergy Renewal Program at Christian Theological Seminary will provide grants of up to $50,000 each directly to congregations for the support of a renewal program for their pastor. The costs associated with family members who accompany a pastor may be included in the amount requested for the pastor. Up to $15,000 of the grant may be used to help the congregation fulfill pastoral duties during the pastor’s absence and/or to support activities that enable the congregation as a whole to be renewed in its ministry.
