Church Affiliations

The C. S. Lewis Institute maintains good working relationships with many churches in the Washington, D.C. area, recognizing the complementary nature of our work. Additionally, Institute programs have been developed and evaluated in consultation with pastors and other church leaders.

Our Pastors' Fellowship program, intended to Serve God's Servants, sponsors special gatherings during the year and additional resources are made available to assist pastors in their ministry---especially with theological and apologetic issues and growing disciples in their congregations.

Applicants to the C.S. Lewis Fellows Program must receive a recommendation from their pastors, and the pastors are invited to nominate candidates for the program each year. Conference speakers are selected in consultation with area pastors, and a number of the pastors with Ph.D. degrees offer seminars and mini-courses from time to time.

Meeting facilities for large conferences as well as small groups have been provided without cost to the Institute by several participating churches, and some provide direct financial support for Institute's work.

  • Ten Letters
    I've been spending more time in prayer lately, feeling convicted that I need to be listening more and being more open to what God is doing and wants to do in my life.  If you’re like me, you go through periods when busyness crowds out discernment, and activities crowd out time to listen.Read More...

"There are two equal and opposite errors into which our race can fall about the devils. One is to disbelieve in their existence. The other is to believe, and to feel an excessive and unhealthy interest in them."
