Calling, Context, and the Church: From Belonging to Witness

How do churches discern and incarnate God’s calling in their communities? Grounded in a theological framework for vocation, insights from contemporary scholar-practitioners, qualitative tools and strategies, and relevant case studies that include the work of Regent Exchange, this course offers a fresh approach to vocation with practical implications for the church as a learning community. Students will come away with a new vision for their church’s vocation along with a draft plan to cultivate a deeper engagement with these ideas in their own ecclesial and community contexts.
