Leadership Formation

The Augustine
Fellowship

Preparing principled leaders ready to serve in government, public institutions, and civic life.

The Augustine Fellowship is the leadership formation program of the Institute for Christian Statecraft. It exists to prepare principled leaders who are ready to serve in government, public institutions, and civic life.

Through a structured fellowship experience, participants engage with political philosophy, public leadership, policy development, and the practical realities of governing. The program combines instruction, discussion, applied exercises, and mentorship to help Fellows grow in both conviction and competence.

Rather than focusing only on theory, the Augustine Fellowship emphasizes practical leadership. Fellows develop the skills needed to navigate complex institutions, communicate effectively in the public square, and exercise authority responsibly.

Graduates of the Augustine Fellowship form a growing network of leaders committed to strengthening communities, institutions, and the broader civic culture.
