OUTDOOR LEADERSHIP Wilderness ministry and adventure programming are a means of getting people into a setting of intentional, intense, experiential education. God's creation becomes the classroom, a laboratory for learning, where lives can be transformed as individuals are pushed to their limit physically, spiritually, emotionally, and relationally. God used the wilderness in the lives of Abraham, Moses, David, Paul, Jesus, and others as key to their spiritual formation, training, and call. Recognizing that this is still true today, Denver Seminary's outdoor leadership courses teach students to plan, structure, administrate, lead, and facilitate wilderness ministry and adventure programming. Utilizing the Seminary's campus, local wilderness programming agencies, and the Colorado backcountry, courses are taught by experienced professionals, utilizing both classroom based instruction (in the outdoor leadership courses found below) and experiential, in the field training (in the adventure programming courses found in the youth and family studies course descriptions). Course work in both departments focuses on the soft and meta skills of outdoor leadership and includes a missional, cross-cultural emphasis. OL 500 Introduction to Wilderness Ministry A practical course designed to introduce students to the theology, philosophy, and methodology of utilizing wilderness settings in Christian ministry. Students will explore this subject through readings, instruction, discussion, and most importantly, through guided experiential involvement in the Colorado backcountry. Offered summer session on demand. Two hours.
