Contextualized Ministry and Public Faith

This is a senior-level course designed to view Christian ministry as faith and witness in a multidimensional context.

This senior-level course, taught by Janice McLean-Farrell at New Brunswick Theological Seminary, is designed to view Christian ministry as faith and witness in a multidimensional context. Christian spirituality and ministry today must engage in living dialogue with multiple publics, secular disciplines, and pluralistic religious and cultural traditions in search of the common good and beloved community. Through this prophetic dialogue and witness, Christian individuals and communities can come to a deeper understanding of Christ’s gospel and God’s kairos for our historical period.
