WO 611 - Models of Worship Evangelism: Baptism With Integrity

Institution:

Asbury Theological Seminary

Subject:

Description:

Ruth Most baptismal services ask candidates for baptism some of the most essential questions in our faith. What would it mean if we took these questions seriously? What would it mean to baptize with integrity? To answer these questions, this course will look at an ancient model of relating worship and evangelism known as the catechumenate, seeing how this model relates to conversion, baptism, and incorporation into a church's worship life. The catechumenate will be explored in both its past historical setting and contemporary attempts to recover it in North America. Of particular interest will be a historical comparison of how certain understandings of God, salvation, and the church find expression in this mode of relating worship and evangelism
