MMS – Missiology and Mobilization Seminar
MMS – Seminar on Missiology and Mobilization
Prerequisite: DSP 211 & 212 / Credits: 1
Start October 23, 2023
The task is unfinished. And we are called to engage in the great work of God’s mission on earth. And we have an invitation for you who want to wake up and take a step into the heart of God for missions and Frontiers, challenges, and missionary mobilization.
The fields are white. There are unreached, unengaged peoples and nations awaiting our step of obedience. We will, until everyone confesses!
Goals
- Understand mobilization and the broader aspects of the MOBILIZER’s calling in missions.
- Become familiar with subjects about missions study, introduction to God’s heart for other cultures and field challenges.
- Practice in contact with a new culture applying and understanding the heart of God for the next steps within missions.
- Mobilize those who have a heart for missions and Frontiers who are mistaken after the seminar for some project or school in the area.
- Awaken our community to heart for MF.
- Create a project for the people that we will practice with a heart in cultural understanding, biblical discipleship and field study.
This course makes part of the College of Christian Ministries at the University of the Nations
The College of Christian Ministries recognizes and responds to the great need to equip Christian leaders for service in the Kingdom of God, whether that be through specific mission and church roles or in the broader community. Courses in evangelism, missions (frontier, urban and specific ethnic or religious groups) church planting, biblical studies, leadership, worship and intercession, and youth ministries incorporate personal character development along with specific training and focused prayer towards the goal of obeying Christ’s command to “go and make disciples of all nations…teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.” (Matt. 28:19-20)
Whether participating in a School of Missions, or joining in a leadership seminar, students learn, work, and worship together, with the goal of “seeking first the Kingdom of God” in the context of the broader mission of the University of the Nations: to know God, and to make Him known.
Graduates of these training programs (both those who work towards a degree and those who take one or two specialized training programs) have gone on to start new ministries, plant churches cross-culturally, train new believers, teach the Bible, set up youth ministry outreaches, and much more. Programs are individually planned with the student’s calling and desired learning goals in mind.
