MN355 Missional Preaching

This is a course exploring the theology  and practice of preaching from the  framework of a missional ecclesiology.  Students will engage biblical, theological,  and practical aspects of preaching with a  view towards inspiring congregations  to missional witness as well as towards  gaining confidence for preaching in  contexts beyond the local congregation. Students will also have the  opportunity to enhance specific skills and practices essential to preaching including  cultural exegesis, contextualization, and content development. Students will be  given opportunities to write, deliver, and  receive feedback on a sermon crafted  towards a specific context. This course  will focus on sending congregations into  mission and preaching in pre-churched,  de-churched, and post-Christian contexts.
