Description
Field Education and Portfolio Design
This course will explore Christian Public Leadership by attending to leadership in the midst of particular communities and their distinct contextual realities. With their ministry context as a primary conversation partner, students will critically reflect on themselves as leaders, discover the communal nature of leadership, explore different spiritual practices, and develop their own leadership practices. Particular attention will be given to praxis, contextualization, and integrative approaches to ministry which will be connected to the student's degree program or concentration of study. The format for this course includes weekly classes (asynchronously) and small groups sessions with a Ministry Coach (synchronous, either in person or online), in addition to weekly leadership in a ministry context. This course has a requirement of at least 100 supervised field education hours for MA students and 300* supervised field education hours for MDiv stude
