Many thousands from around the world have already participated in TGC cohorts, ranging in topics from biblical theology to women’s ministry to effective evangelism and much more.

But what can you expect? Why should you sign up to learn cultural apologetics this summer/fall from The Keller Center’s fellows? Or the New Testament use of the Old Testament from two of the church’s leading biblical scholars? Or children’s ministry from several of the most experienced and creative practitioners?

Here’s the idea behind cohorts: Thanks to new technology, learning from the best teachers has become affordable and accessible. And this is no one-way street. Cohorts are interactive. You’re speaking directly with the teachers while also learning from the other participants, spread around the globe in diverse contexts with experiences that enrich your own. Even if you miss a session, you can catch up on the recordings at your own pace.

When you consider the spiritual benefits for yourself and your church, it’s just a matter of choosing which topic matches your interests and needs. Thanks to generous donors, TGC can keep participation fees affordable for the broadest possible reach in the global church.

We’re always working to improve the cohorts based on surveys and feedback. So far, we’ve heard hundreds of testimonies about how God is using this ministry. Here’s what one recent participant shared with us:

Enrolling in this cohort was a highlight of my summer. The lectures were so engaging and compelling that 90 minutes absolutely flew by each evening, and yet by the end of the cohort as I looked back it seemed like we had been enriched with far more than 9 hours of content. I believe somewhere the course description read something like “ample opportunity for interaction,” but my expectations were significantly exceeded for just how much opportunity for meaningful dialogue and engagement there was for participants. No question I had went unanswered, so that was a really cool aspect of the way the cohort was designed and structured.

As executive director of The Keller Center for Cultural Apologetics, I’m eager for the return this summer of Cultural Apologetics 101, led by many of the most dynamic teachers I know, such as Rebecca McLaughlin, Gavin Ortlund, and Sam Chan. Take it by yourself or in a group—either way, you’ll be equipped to defend the truth of the gospel intellectually and show its beauty, relevance, and goodness in everyday life.

PS: As a bonus for joining this cohort, we’ll even send you the earliest copies of our latest collaboration at The Keller Center, our new book The Gospel After Christendom.
