God's Ministry of Reconciliation: Explorations in Missiology and Ecclesiology

1 credits · Divinity School

At the heart of the gospel is the offer of the gift of reconciliation. Unfortunately, the biblical vision of the church as a reconciled community and ambassador of peace has not always been prominent in the church's history, a history too often marred by sin, division, and hostility. In this course students will explore biblical, theological, and ecclesial resources leading to a renewed commitment to the church as both a sign and foretaste of God's eschatological vision of the new humanity in Christ
