BRIEF OVERVIEW
This course provides an overview of both the Old and New Testaments on Mission. It explores the biblical and theological foundation of global mission, to help the student to grasp the nature and heart of God, and the identity and vocation of God’s people–God as the missional God, Church as the missional community, and Christians as the missional people. The course will enable the student to articulate a ‘whole Bible’ understanding of mission, and connect this to one’s mission and ministry contexts. The course will help students to get into the detail of how several important biblical themes converge with the mission, such as revelation, election, redemption, restoration, covenant, ethics, creation, culture and the nations.
