    The Missiological Future of Theological Education

    April 8, 2011 // 5836No Comments »http%3A%2F%2Flifeasmission.com%2Fblog%2F2011%2F04%2Fthe-missiological-future-of-theological-education%2FThe+Missiological+Future+of+Theological+Education2011-04-08+19%3A10%3A46JR+Rozkohttp%3A%2F%2Flifeasmission.com%2Fblog%2F%3Fp%3D5836

    A couple weeks ago I offered the post, The Emerging Guild of Missionary Theologians.  I am planning on following up with that post more substantively very soon.

    In the meantime, it’s probably worth noting that my thoughts there and those that will come out in the next post on the subject, are vitally connected to a series I wrote at the end of 2009, Toward a Missional Vision of Theological Education.

    I get emails and feedback on those posts often enough that I thought it might be worth making them a bit more accessible to lifeasmission newcomers.  So, for those of you who typically just read these posts in a feed reader, if you click through to my blog, you’ll find a list of the 9 posts in that series as well as a PDF of the entire series in the right sidebar.

    These posts continue to be important for me personally and vocationally and it would seem that plenty of others are desirous to have dialogue about the ideas there.  So, hopefully keeping them a bit more front and center will aid in that regard.

Toward a Missional Vision of Theological Education

One of my main areas of interest is the shaping of a missional paradigm of theological education in Post-Christendom. To that end I wrote a series of 9 posts on the subject that have become foundational for work that I am continuing to do in the current context of seminary education.

  1. Preliminary Thoughts
  2. The Root of the Problem
  3. The Fruit of the Problem
  4. New Soil
  5. Community Rootedness
  6. Character Formation
  7. Conviction Shaping
  8. Contextual Training
  9. Cultural Pioneering
