CHURCH PLANTING CP 643 Planting and Leading Mission-Shaped New Churches Introduces church planting as an integral part of the triune God's extension of Christ's reign and coming kingdom. It frames church planting from a biblical and theological perspective that focuses on the calling and sending of leaders to plant mission-shaped churches. The course provides students with disciplined discernment about their potential for church planting leadership in symbiotic relationship to profiles of effective and faithful church planting. Two hours. CP 644 The Pace and Stages of Church Planting This course focuses on two areas—the stages of church planting and the pace of church planting. The first surveys the stages of mission-shaped church planting, including building a vision, defining a vision- centered church plant, leadership, gathering a congregation, and organizing a reproducing church in local, regional, and national contexts. The second investigates the pace of church planting in making and mentoring disciples, viral multiplication of disciples through vital churches planting new churches, vibrant practices of spirituality reclaiming ancient Christian tradition, and proactive leadership on moving through different stages in church planting. Two hours. CP 645 Bridging Gospel and Culture through Church Planting Explores the bridges between Gospel and culture from a missiological perspective and through Christian praxis in church planting. Beginning with the biblical record, the course will surface the transcultural aspects of the Gospel. Particular emphasis is placed on cultural bridges that serve as relevant mission- shaped forms of Gospel witness relevant to church planting. Twenty-first century Western emphases such as individualism, technology, and ethnic and religious pluralism provide major parts of the contemporary setting for the church's mission. Case studies are used from the expansive church growth of the Southern Hemisphere church in order to glean insights for recasting new forms of Gospel witness appropriate to North America for church planting. Two hours.
