DMIN 7313 - Missional Ecclesiology (3)

This course provides a broad and deep imagination concerning the mission of God as revealed in Scripture and evidenced by his ongoing work in the world. Theology, in this sense, is not simply answers to questions systematically arranged and then applied. Rather, it affirms the biblical narrative of God’s active relationship with his creation, acknowledges Christ’s gospel as embodiment of that mission, and submits to the work of the Holy Spirit and the apostolic teachings in continual engagement of God’s world of concern. This course encourages biblical reflection and prayerful discernment of God’s purpose and concrete expressions of his will in local congregations and other missional contexts. It provides theological direction to final projects.
