Amma Syncletica said: “In the beginning, there is struggle and a lot of work for those who come near to God. But after that, there is indescribable joy. It is just like building a fire: at first it’s smoky and your eyes water, but later you get the desired result. Thus we ought to light the divine fire in ourselves with tears and effort.”
“Our primary calling as followers of Christ is by him, to him, and for him. First and foremost we are called to Someone (God), not to something (such as mother, politics, or teaching) or somewhere (such as the inner city or Outer Mongoli).” – Os Guinness

Instructed by Dr. Carmen Kampman, this course focuses on the spiritual formation and development of those who are called to be leaders, but also addresses the topic of spiritual formation more broadly.
