New College Berkeley

erings and, especially in a season of public health concerns, we also do so through on-line gatherings. Expanding a mission focused on the relevance of biblical faith for all Christians, in 1992 NCB became an affiliate of the Graduate Theological Union in Berkeley, an interfaith consortium of nine seminaries and eleven affiliates associated with the University of California at Berkeley. NCB contributes academic courses, spiritual formation programs, and public forums to this distinguished theological consortium and university community. At NCB we encourage an integration of faith with academic disciplines and the cultivation of Christian vocation within secular studies and professional engagement. Committed to the “priesthood of all believers,” we find our programs and community life enriched by the participation of university students, seminarians, and Christians from Bay Area churches. In response to the spiritual depletion many Christians experience in our time-pressed, work- driven culture, New College Berkeley has expanded its spiritual formation programs since 2000. We now offer spiritual direction and regular retreat opportunities, along with programs integrating Christian faith with fields such as literature, psychology, social justice issues, science, and biblical studies. We are blessed to be part of the exceptional intellectual culture of Berkeley, fortifying the faith and vocations of students who will be influencing the church and the world. Contact:
