About Church Divinity School of the Pacific
CDSP forms leaders called to find new ways to create Christian communities and share God’s love. Through our partnership with Trinity Church and an ongoing dialog with bishops and grassroots leaders, we have focused our programs on Christian mission, discipleship, and evangelism and on core leadership skills of contextual awareness, critical reflection, and public conversation; refocused our core mission on our popular hybrid program for students balancing family obligations or professional responsibilities; and established partnerships that allow us to create distance learning curricula for individual dioceses.
