Description
This course introduces students to the emergence of Christianity in a particular context of their choice, with a view toward developing a missiology for this context. Attention is given to understanding the historical formation of the church in terms of denominations and mission organizations in relation to their theory, sociology, organizational make-up, and practices of ministry. In light of these historical developments, each student constructs a contextual missiology for addressing the realities of this context in helping the church utilize a missional ecclesiology for participating in God's mission in that location.
