Become a Member of the SPCM

SPCM is a leading scholarly guild for evangelical academicians in the field of practical theology, particularly in the disciplines of education, discipleship, and ministry leadership.

Our membership is comprised primarily of professors, ministry practitioners, and doctoral students, all of whom are devoted to increasing depth and excellence in the teaching ministry of the church and the academy.

Considering joining SPCM? We would love to have you! We welcome new members who have a passion for equipping Christian leaders through higher education to carry forward the ministry of the Church. As a member, you have many opportunities.  You are invited to attend the annual conference, submit proposals for presenting research or professional development presentations (which assist with promotion), and receive a digital subscription to the Christian Education Journal. Plus, you are part of a community of those involved in teaching and leading in Christian higher education programs. Relationships between members have resulted in publications, job opportunities, interdisciplinary collaboration, and sharing resources between institutions. Members can also be nominated to the board of directors after at least three years of membership.
