What is The Cohort?

We believe in raising up leaders, equipping them to join Jesus by the power of the Holy Spirit in His mission in the world in every part of our lives.

We are launching a seven-month, two-semester program intended to create space for flourishing spiritual growth by way of ministry leadership development.

Drawing from the core historical components of discipleship, we will focus on three key elements: practice, learning, and shared life.

  • Practice

    In an effort to, “renew our minds,” as disciples of Christ, each session will be framed by teachings from a member of Rockharbor’s pastoral team or a guest speaker and will extensively expand on material ranging from missions and ministry, historical theology, scripture, and more.

  • Learning

    To help us integrate what we learn and discuss with each other into our daily life with God, each session will have a corresponding spiritual practice. These practices will include Sabbath, Prayer of Examen, Praying the Psalms, Lectio Divina, among others.

  • Shared Life

    Discipleship happens in community. To cultivate long-lasting friendships as we learn from and encourage one another, each session will include dinner together and a discussion that facilitates a deeper relational connection.
