CMS 3000 Vital Issues of Ministry in City-Centers
This course examines the phenomena and effects of global city centers. Focus will be placed on the city-center's impact on global migration, ethnicity, justice, and diaspora faith communities. The results of globalization and the changing cultural implications are addressed. Students will be equipped to serve in a city-centered context as their imaginations are shaped by God's love for people whose social and cultural location is the city center. Also, students will see the tangible and faithful presence of Christian ministries in the city of Chicago. Engagement in the city of Chicago is transferable to any global city-center.
