This course is based on the theological conviction that knowing the Triune God is inseparable from participating in a particular community and its practices participation which is the work of God's Holy Spirit. We will examine the purpose of congregational life in light of our own discipleship and calls to leadership in ministry. We will examine the purpose of building up congregations, discipleship making, worship, pastoral care and the pastoral offices of baptism (adult and children), weddings, and funerals.
This course is being offered both in person (LEC 0101) and remote synchronously (LEC 6201). Please be sure you register for the proper section in ACORN
