THL121 Introduction to Christian Ministry (8)
This subject explores the praxis of Christian ministry, both lay and ordained, through theological reflection upon leadership and spirituality. This exploration takes into account changing paradigms of ministry. Topics cover essential components of responsible ministry (in the church and the world), including theological reflection, ethics, spirituality, worship, pastoral care, education, social justice, and mission. A requirement is participation in a supervised ministry placement which may be in the student's workplace, home, local community or church setting.
