A Place for EveryBody

Leadership and Administration for the Now and Future Church

What makes for an excellent leader in the current and emerging church? What qualities must leaders cultivate in order to meet the ministry needs of the now and future church? How might we stay attuned to what God is doing today and how God is calling us into the future? This course will explore these questions by engaging current theory and practical resources for developing church leaders who can address the challenges and opportunities present in today’s churches. In this course, students will strengthen their own spiritual fortitude and self-awareness, while developing skills for administration, effective communication, conflict management, and visioning.


Church of the Brethren History F24

How has the Brethren movement developed over time? How have Brethren confronted issues in the broader society, such as slavery, war, or prohibition? This course will answer these questions and others by exploring the history of the Brethren movement, beginning with its origins in Schwarzenau, Germany and tracing its development through over 300 years of his-tory. While this course will predominantly focus on the Church of the Brethren, the class will also touch briefly on other Brethren groups. The course will investigate the social historical contexts in which the Brethren emerged in Europe, immigrated to North America, and spread to other countries. A focus of the course will be on the changes and continuities among the Brethren in interaction with surrounding cultures.
The purpose of this course is to introduce students to the broad scope of Brethren history. Students should become able to identify key terms, persons, themes, and events within Brethren history.

Prójimos amados: Lecturas intercontextuales de la carta de Santiago / Beloved neighbors: Intercontextual readings of James

Este seminario intensivo ofrece la oportunidad de practicar la interpretación intercontextual de la carta de Santiago en conversaciones con vecinos que hablan inglés o español. Utilizaremos tecnología (Zum y Moodle-X) para facilitar la conversación sin necesidad de viajar. Veremos que el amor al prójimo es fundamental en la sabiduría que Santiago transmite, basada en Levítico 19:18 y las enseñanzas de Jesús, y analizaremos cómo esta sabiduría puede influir en nuestras respuestas a los problemas actuales, incluyendo el trato a los inmigrantes y otras minorías en Estados Unidos. Esta experiencia de aprendizaje mutuo nos permitirá profundizar nuestra comprensión y práctica de la fe cristiana de maneras que encarnen la paz justa de Dios y contribuyan al desarrollo de nuestros vecinos y vecindarios.

This intensive seminar is an opportunity to practice intercontextual interpretation of the letter of James in conversation with neighbors who speak either English or Spanish. We will use technology (Zoom and Moodle) to facilitate conversation without the need for travel. We will see that neighbor-love is central to the wisdom that James conveys based on Leviticus 19:18 and the teachings of Jesus, and we will discuss how this wisdom can shape our responses to current issues, including the treatment of immigrants and other minorities in the United States. This mutual learning experience will be to deepen our understanding and practice of Christian faith in ways that embody God's just peace and that help neighbors and neighborhoods flourish.
