About Anselm Ministries
Anselm Ministries draws its name from the eleventh century monk and theologian who had a profound impact on Christianity. We have adopted his motto – Faith Seeking Understanding – as the name of this web site and the following prayer from his writings as the vision statement for Anselm Ministries:
Grant that I may taste by love, what I apprehend by knowledge, that I may feel in my heart what I touch in the Spirit. (Anselm of Canterbury, Meditations on Human Redemption)
Anselm Ministries is a church-based teaching organization whose purpose is to support the pastoral care of the local church. It seeks to help individuals grow in their faith and their understanding of how to live Godly, Christ-centered lives. This progressive sanctification is demonstrated by the growth of “good fruit” and the decay of “bad fruit,” the sinful works of the flesh (i.e., Gal. 5). The ultimate ministry goal is for people to pass on what they have received by becoming instruments of change in the lives of others.
