Personal Transformation is the outcome of an intentional, ongoing, disciplined, and long-term process, involving God's activity and personal work and commitment. This course provides tools for an in-depth exploration of one's mind, body and soul and an invitation to embark on a journey of Personal Transformation, in relation to one's call and engagement of ministry. In this course, students will be introduced to the theories and practice of some disciplines such as: meditation and prayer, exploration of one's personality structure and ways of being in the world, cultivation of self-awareness and mindfulness, listening to one's own inner life, attentiveness to one's fully embodied presence in the world.

In this course, students formulate principles for leading ongoing revitalization of ministries. Two sets of sources provide the substance for developing these principles. The first set is historical biographies; the second is current case studies. These principles are gleaned from a probing examination of the intersections where leader biographies may speak to current case studies. Leaders selected for study are historic figures who led transformative ministries with lasting positive results. Case studies are created from actual incidents.

Missional Renewal in the Age of Globalization (3 credits) This course explores the implications of globalization for the church and its mission. "Globalization" is as big as the term suggests, referring to the coming together of many different cultures, socio-economic classes, and ideologies, thus creating cross-cultural, cross-socio-economic, cross-generational, interreligious and postmodern realities more than ever before. These realities pose challenges to congregations that seek to maintain the gospel's relevance in the world. What does missional renewal look like in light of these realities? This course addresses this question from sociological, theological and practical perspectives, as it considers the challenges of becoming missional congregations in the age of globalization.
