The Fellows Program
The CSLI Fellows Program offers a year of intensive training that leads to significant life-change. Unlike many discipleship programs, the Fellows program focuses on discipleship of both heart and mind. It involves Bible study, classic readings, lectures, group processing, personal spiritual mentoring and accountability — all in the context of a small group of like-minded believers. This year-long program is designed for those who want to live as fully committed disciples of Jesus Christ and make an impact for him in the world.

Gregg Stearns
Fellows Program Facilitator, PittsburghGregg Stearns was born and raised in Pico Rivera, California, a suburb of Los Angeles. His formal education was close to home – a Bachelor of Science in Engineering and Applied Science from the California Institute of Technology and a Master of Divinity from Talbot Seminary (Biola University). After a three-year stint as a pastor he returned to engineering as a career but never lost his passion for studying and communicating the Word of God and for growing in his own relationship with the living Christ. He’s been involved in the Year One and Year Two Fellows programs of the C.S. Lewis Institute and has served as a CSLI mentor for four years. He now serves as the Facilitator for the Fellows Program in the Pittsburgh area.
