This course will provide the student with an overview of Christian discipleship and witness in the world that is grounded in God’s mission. From a story of the biblical story that is foundational to an understanding of the work of the Triune God through time and eternity, to a study of challenges and opportunities of mission and evangelism worldwide, the student will gain a greater appreciation of the breadth of God’s mission and the way that the global church is called to embrace its missional identity and participate in that mission.
