CMS 2260 Jesus, Discipleship, and Making Disciples

The course studies the Christian imperative to make disciples of every human ethnicity. While one can find fault in the history of this indispensable Christian task, to be Christian requires the church to be a disciple making community. Students will learn how to become and deepen in their own disciple as well as making disciples. The approach of this course rejects the pragmaticism of twentieth century techniques of conversion for presence and curiosity. Students will cultivate a posture of authentic curiosity and attunement empowered by the Holy Spirit. Students will learn to embody and speak the truths of Jesus into everyday life with a humble and contrite posture in the post-Christian, globally informed West.
