Ministry Practicum

This course is intended to facilitate the integration of theory and practice in the MDiv programme. It integrates learning from at least two other MDiv courses and some prescribed reading materials, as you evaluate and improve your own ministry. By the end of this course you should be able to demonstrate:

• lifelong learning through a regular habit of reading current books related to your ministry and reflecting on the application of the author’s ideas.
• commitment to the habits of Christian life and ministry, such as prayer, Bible study, fellowship, family life, etc.
• the ability to relate theory to practice.
• the ability to assess how your ministry (i.e. organization, church, people) has been impacted through your personal growth and learning during this course.
• the cultivation and engagement of important discussion partners who help you to grow in your ministry (e.g. interviews, etc.).
• a healthy balance between academic, ministerial, and devotional dimensions of your life.
