Classical Fellowship Ft. Worth, TX

Christy is a wife and mother of four who is deeply grateful for the Lord's guidance in leading her family to homeschooling. After fifteen years with Classical Conversations and two Challenge IV graduates, she is cherishing the last years of homeschooling her youngest children — still walking this road herself, right alongside the families she serves.

Throughout her CC journey, Christy has served for twelve years as a director, guiding students and families through almost every level from Foundations to Challenge IV. She has also served her local community as a Book Representative. In April 2025, she earned her Master of Arts in Classical Studies with a History concentration from Southeastern University — a milestone that reflects her belief that learning is both a lifelong pursuit and a lifelong joy.

Through her years with Classical Conversations and her graduate studies, Christy has seen and experienced the value of a classical education rooted in a Christ-centered foundation. She knows what it means to walk alongside a student through every level of Challenge — and she knows what it means to watch a graduate step across that threshold and into the wide-open question of what comes next. She has lived both sides of this journey. And she is still in it.

Classical Fellowship Fort Worth is a weekly, in-person community where meaningful conversations and personal connections continue beyond graduation. Each student is uniquely created by God for a purpose, and the classical tools of learning equip them to live out their purpose as they engage with the world around them. Christy is building a community in Fort Worth where no graduate has to face that next season alone.

"Mentorship in a community setting helps guide students at a time of great vulnerability — as they enter a world fighting to drown out God's standards for truth, goodness, and beauty."

— Christy Barker

Classical Fellowship Site Director — Fort Worth, Texas

What is Classical Fellowship? Classical Fellowship is a weekly, in-person community for Challenge IV graduates — a place where the classical conversation that began in Challenge continues, deepens, and takes root in whatever calling each student is pursuing after graduation.

When can my student start? Classical Fellowship is designed for students who have completed Challenge IV. When your graduate is ready, the path is waiting.

No matter what your student's calling, pairing SEU Online with Classical Fellowship means

that your Challenge IV graduate doesn't have to lose classical community and Christian

formation that has been built.

Classical Fellowship is where those fifteen skills keep being practiced — in community, with

a Site Director who knows the CC model, alongside peers who share the same classical,

Christ-centered foundation — while your graduate pursues wherever God is leading them.

You don't have to watch it stop at graduation. There is a place for it to keep going.
