1 SYLLABUS MISSIONAL STRATEGIES IN EMERGING CULTURE GB HST -03 MACP January 11- April 2 Spring 2016 Office: Ez 220B Earl Lavender earl.lavender@lipscomb.edu Ezell pm ext Catalogue description: A practical and theological analysis of contemporary efforts to be and become missional churches in both domestic and international settings. The study includes biblical foundations, historical implications, and contemporary applications. Emphasis is given to the mission of the church in postmodern and cross-cultural contexts. Special Note: I am teaching this course in four formats simultaneously. Section 1 is a classroom-based course offered to students in the Hazelip School of Theology (HST). Section 2 is a web-based course offered to students in the HST. Section 3 will meet with Section 1 in the classroom same time and place, but offered to students pursuing the MACP degree. Section 4 is the webbased version for the MACP. This syllabus is for sections 1 (HST) and section 3 (MACP) NOTE TO THE STUDENT: It is your responsibility to produce the work required in your section of the course. This is the combined syllabus for the web-based sections. The different requirements will be noted in bolded brackets [ ]. Where there is no noted difference, the requirements are the same. Required texts: Bible (version of your choice, ideally a Bible in which you will be able to freely mark) Briggs, Alan. Staying Is the New Going: Choosing to Love Where God Places You. (NavPress: 2015) Goheen, Michael W. A Light to the Nations. (Baker Academic, 2011) Gorman, Michael J. Becoming the Gospel: Paul, Participation and Mission (Eerdmans, 2015) Guder, Darrell L. Called to Witness: Doing Missional Theology. (Eerdmans Publishing Co. 2015) Roxburgh, Alan J. Structured for Mission: Renewing the Culture of the Church. (IVP, 2015) Roxburgh, Alan, and Fred Romanuk. The Missional Leader: Equipping Your Church to Reach a Changing World. (Jossey-Bass, 2006) Course Design: 1. The course will begin by studying the root of mission in the heart of God in the biblical text. The importance of a narrative reading of the redemptive story of which we are a part will be a major point of emphasis. Goheen s book will serve for this purpose. 2. We will then work on developing a missional theology and ecclesiology, based on the biblical story as well as Guder s Called to Witness. This will include a brief historical survey on the historical development of Christian missions, leading to our current post-modern culture. 3. Gorman s Becoming the Gospel will form the basis for our continuing study. We will consider

2 the writing of Christianity s greatest missionary the apostle Paul for what he says specifically about evangelistic outreach. At this point in the class (half way), we will have established a biblically based missional theology (the focus of the mid-course paper see below). This will serve as the foundation for the second half of the course. 4. The study will next focus on the heart of the leader. Using The Missional Leader as a guide, we will work though the characteristics and skills needed to lead a church in a missional direction 5. How, then, should a church be structured for mission? Using Roxburgh s Structured for Mission we will work toward implementing a missional plan in a specific context (chosen by the student this is the subject of the final project). 6. The final section of the course delves into a much needed discussion how might we involve every member of the church in a missional life? Brigg s Staying Is the New Going will guide our exploration of this possibility. Course objectives Upon completion of this course, the student will be able to: Identify a biblical view of the world and understand God s missional essence. The primary intent of the course is to aid the student in developing a genuine passion for missio dei. Understand the historical development of missions, gaining insight into why the church has to some extent misidentified God s purposes for her Identify a theology of mission that one will consciously and fervently pursue, which is consistent with the apostle Paul s understanding of living out God s mission. Verbalize awareness of the cultural changes that provide exciting opportunities for God s mission Identify and develop the organizational skills needed to plan kingdom expanding efforts wherever one is working. Recognize and pursue the role of spiritual leadership in the calling of all believers to full participation in missio dei. Have the ability to coach congregants into an active pursuit of the purposes of God unique and appropriate for that individual within the community. COURSE ASSIGNMENTS AND GRADING: Pre-Course Essay (10% - due by January 11 th ) All students are to write a 1,000 word (minimum, no more than 1,500 words) description of your understanding of God s mission in the world, concluding with an explanation of what you hope to gain for this study.
