🏠 What Is a Soul Center?
A Soul Center within the Christian Leaders Alliance (CLA) is a registered Christian religious society that serves local communities or specific relational circles. These centers are established and led by credentialed ministers of the CLA, who agree to uphold the Christian Leaders Alliance Statement of Faith and follow the guidelines outlined in the Soul Center Handbook.
The primary purpose of a Soul Center is to function as a manifestation of Christian church community life—providing spiritual guidance, care, teaching, and ministry services tailored to the unique needs of the people it serves.
Soul Centers can take many forms, reflecting the gifts, training, and calling of their leaders. They may operate as fellowship groups, ministry practices (such as ministry life coaching), churches, mentor centers, or other ministry expressions. Each registered Soul Center is affiliated with the Christian Leaders Alliance, ensuring alignment with shared mission, values, accountability, and support.
The establishment of Soul Centers began in late 2022 as a way to create localized hubs for ministry activity. These centers help mobilize local ministers, strengthen grassroots discipleship, and extend Christian witness into everyday relational spaces.
By registering a Soul Center, credentialed ministers can formalize their ministry efforts, gain recognition within the broader Christian Leaders Alliance network, and access resources that strengthen their effectiveness in serving others—often in partnership with the educational support of Christian Leaders Institute.
