Sections

Lessons

Biblical Section

The Biblical section follows three interrelated thematic trajectories through the Bible: God’s blessing, glory, and kingdom. Tracking these themes enables us to see a coherent story that encompasses all the stories of the Bible.

Historical Section

The Historical section shows the continuity of God’s purpose from biblical times until the present day. This section is not merely recounting representative events of mission history. It presents a theology of history.

Cultural Section

The Cultural section enables students to understand the complexity and feasibility of the gospel being conveyed well by cross-cultural messengers to bring about culturally appropriate Christ-following movements. This section helps students to understand how two things can flourish in their cultural context: the message and the messengers.

Strategic Section

The Strategic section shows how the task of bringing about Christ-following movements in every people can actually be accomplished. The possibilities and complex issues of seeing vibrant church movements flourish in every people are analyzed and show how church movements bring forth God’s promise of transformational blessing among all peoples.

Engage the World Christian Movement

Perspectives will challenge your view of God – and yourself. When students comprehend the remarkable opportunity God offers us, they understand the value and benefit of being a World Christian. The stunning privilege God grants his followers creates a passion to engage in the World Christian Movement.

Perspectives covers a wide range of information vital to any Christian desiring to follow God and worship Him in their life - whether locally or globally. It is a class that focuses on the glory of God and His Name and Renown reaching the nations of the world.

I have taken the Perspectives course numerous times. I have heard numerous Instructors and have taken the class with different people. I have been pre-going as a missionary taking the course. And now I have taken it returning home from the mission field. Each time, you read more, you learn more, and you gain more perspective. Thankfully, Perspectives has been a thread on my tapestry for which I will never be the same.
