About this Event

Reimagining Work Vol. 15: Education in LA

CFWLA is proud to host Reimagining Work: Education in LA, a morning designed to inspire Christians from across greater Los Angeles. Teachers, administrators, aides, curriculum designers, coaches, homeschool parents, school board members, and educational leaders are invited to rediscover the distinctly Christian calling as an educator. Whether you serve in public schools, private institutions, charter networks, or homeschool communities, this event will help you re-envision the opportunities God has given you in your distinct job as an educator.

From a biblical perspective, work is one of the primary ways God calls human beings to participate in His purposes for the world. Education, in particular, plays a vital role in God’s design for forming wisdom, cultivating truth, and preparing people to live faithfully and serve their neighbors. When Christians pursue their calling in education with humility, excellence, and love for their students, they align their work with God’s own interest in shaping minds, forming character, and nurturing the flourishing of communities.

Together we will explore how education forms souls, shapes neighborhoods, and contributes to the flourishing of our city. You’ll hear speakers address how Christian faith reframes their work as educators. Then, through a dynamic panel and Q&A with leading practitioners in Los Angeles, you’ll gain practical insight into the unique challenges and opportunities facing educators in our cultural moment—and how God is at work in each setting.

Our hope is that you will leave with:

• Renewed clarity about your calling in education

• Fresh theological imagination for your daily work

• Encouragement for the distinct context you serve in

• Excitement about how God might use your platform for lasting good

Education is not merely a profession. It is formation. It is stewardship. It is culture-shaping work.

Come be reminded that your classroom, campus, or kitchen table is holy ground and that the Lord is using educators across Los Angeles to advance His Kingdom.

Light refreshments will be provided.
