Missional Meanderings
May 22, 2007 | Filed Under church, ecclesiology, leadership, meanderings, missional |
Here is an excellent article on the importance of teaching theology from a missional perspective by Dr. John Franke, Professor of Theology at Biblical Seminary. The article focuses on the implications of understanding Christian theology as a discipline that should assist the church in it’s missional vocation.
Drew Goodmanson presents a couple of outstanding posts on developing a “triperspectival ecclesiology.” The first post is here. Second post is here. A follow up post on missional leadership is here. Be sure to examine the diagrams with each post. How do you see these diagrams assisting the formation of your community? How do they help you communicate?
I found the possibilities of this event very interesting in light of several conversations we have been having about the need for some sort of missional order.
Does individualism pervert the gospel? Getting the Gospel right by Scot McKnight.
In small group ministry as well as house/organic expressions of church people inevitably ask “what to do with the kids?”
Finally, here is a nice resource of seminary courses from Covenant Theological Seminary in St. Louis. There are nearly a thousand free resources available for download in mp3 or pdf files.
