LDR 505 - Church and Community

Units: 3
This course examines key biblical passages related to the church, overviews major historical positions of the church, and interacts with contemporary questions about the church in order to help the student formulate his or her own personal theology of the church in a way that is consistent with the historic church, faithful to Scripture, and relevant to the culture. The student will also see how ecclesiology shapes pastoral leadership, ministry and community development. Students will consider how the church understands its own identity and relationship with community structures, social policies, and institutions.
