信仰 Formation Project Grant
The 信仰 Formation Project consists of two parts; (1) building a community of learning in the Pacific Northwest among families, ministry leaders, 以及学院网易彩票app影响基督教信仰形成的交叉现实和当前挑战的研究, (2)开展实践神学和社会认知心理学的跨学科研究，以更好地理解基督教信仰从父母和照顾者到孩子的传播. 这两个维度都支持共同的目标，即通过教会来支持家庭内部的信仰形成, 特别关注这些家庭在经历边缘化的过程中可能出现的和解, 种族歧视, a changing gender/sexual landscape, 残疾, 以及与心理健康相关的问题——其中一些问题因COVID大流行而加剧.
Grant activities will include three community building and learning events each year: a fall “信仰 Formation: Lunch and Learn” event for local family ministry leaders; a winter “信仰 Formation: Evenings Together” event at a local congregation that will provide space for learning and conversation with families and ministry leaders; a spring “信仰 Formation: Spring Conference” that will bring a national leader on faith formation to SPU’s campus. 这三个活动将与西雅图太平洋神学院的信仰培育证书的发展同时进行. In addition to this support for congregational leaders, four congregations each year, 会否获得$5000奖励以支持他们的事工, 可能被用来从SPU的神学专业和神学院学生中招聘实习生. In addition to learning on campus and in local congregations, 网易彩票app将进行一次和解朝圣，以了解麻风病对夏威夷家庭的影响. 在这次朝圣中，网易彩票app将了解到与这种疾病有关的夏威夷殖民地和土著人口之间的复杂关系, the role of faith in the leper colony at Molokai, 以及这个社区如何从这种疾病中康复并继续前进.
Additionally, practical theologian, Katherine M. 道格拉斯, social cognitive psychologist Brittany Tausen, and social psychologist, 珍妮Vaydich, 是否会与家庭进行信仰社会化的混合方法研究. 研究将包括与家庭的焦点小组，以更好地了解交叉复杂的家庭动态中的信仰社会化. Research will also include the development of a survey, 基于已有的信仰社会化研究和焦点小组调查结果. 网易彩票app每年将培养四名学生进行跨学科研究, 谁将为春季会议制作报告和演示文稿. 将为学术界和部长级读者出版研究报告.

Cultivating Teen 信仰: Insights from the Confirmation Project
Eerdmanns, 2018
What are churches doing to form the faith of their young people? 许多实行婴儿洗礼的教会教派在孩子进入青春期并进入精神成长的新阶段时提供坚信礼或同等的事工——但所有教会都是如此, regardless of tradition, 纠结于如何让年轻人积极加入教会. What really works?
在这本书中，十二位作者对美国五个教派的三千多名会众进行了为期三年的研究——联合卫理公会教会, African Methodist 圣公会 Church, 圣公会 Church, Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, and Presbyterian Church (USA)—to answer this pressing question. 他们讲述了优秀和创新的确认节目的故事，这些节目行之有效, 最重要的是, what good discipleship with young people looks like. 青年牧师, church leaders, 家长们也将从这里介绍的实践和新的教学方法中受益，这些方法已被证明有助于形成和增强年轻人的信仰.
