“A missional church is a church that is shaped by participating in God’s mission, which is to set things right in a broken, sinful world, to redeem it, and to restore what God has always intended for the world.” This course will wrestle with the educational context (understanding community and culture) and educational content (curriculum) in a missional paradigm. We will explore the role of the leadership in engaging in cross-cultural mission, discipling people to spiritual maturity, nurturing community, equipping and empowering the saints for mission, modeling missional living, and integrating faith in the marketplace and daily living. We will consider how we can cultivate missional disciples of Jesus and how God’s mission can permeate everything a congregation does—-from worship to witness to disciple-making. Offered regularly.
