Summary:
Luke Hatteberg is a spiritual formation strategist, pastor, and senior school leader with over a decade of integrated experience building discipleship infrastructure, developing biblical worldview integration, and providing pastoral care across every dimension of Christian school life.
For the past six years, Luke has served as Dean of Students and Chaplain at Coram Deo Academy, a classical Christian school in the Dallas–Fort Worth area, as an executive member of the Campus Leadership Administrative Team. During his tenure, the school grew from 129 to over 550 students — through a pandemic, a campus relocation, a multi-year property search, and a permanent facility buildout and move in 2025. Throughout that growth, Luke’s primary focus has been the people: maintaining a healthy relational culture, caring for students and families in the hardest seasons, and ensuring that the school’s formational mission remained central amid rapid operational change.
In his role, Luke has built chapel programs and discipleship pathways from the ground up, led faculty and staff in spiritual formation and professional development, maintained an active pastoral caseload spanning students, families, and staff, developed parent engagement in family discipleship, and coordinated student service and outreach. He has authored and co-authored institutional policy, led the campus crisis management team, and launched the Prepare & Care Initiative — a comprehensive campus safety and medical preparedness program. He has taught across grades 6–12, spanning subjects including Bible and Theology, Formal Logic, and History, and developed an original curriculum in Woodworking and Theology of Art.
Alongside his work at CDA, Luke serves as a Battalion Command Chaplain in the U.S. Navy Reserve, providing pastoral care, crisis intervention, and spiritual leadership to 600+ Marines. He previously served as the High School Pastor at Northwest Bible Church in Dallas, shepherding a ministry of 90+ students and 20+ volunteers. He also served as a collaborator and supervisor with The Village Church Institute, directing the Seminary Track cohort and mentoring ministry residents through a rigorous theological and pastoral formation program.
Luke holds a Master of Theology in Historical Theology from Dallas Theological Seminary, where mentorships within the Theological Studies Department gave him a distinctly Christian lens on the history and practice of spiritual formation. He also holds the ACCS Professional Teacher Certificate and is completing his ACCS Master Teacher Certification in Winter 2026.
He is grounded in the conviction that he is fundamentally an instrument — called to faithfulness over outcomes. His goal, whether in a school, a battalion, or a congregation, is always the same: to form people to be like Christ by helping them Think the True, Do the Good, Discern the Beautiful, and worship the Holy God.
Luke and his wife live in the Dallas–Fort Worth area with their four children.
