Description | Full-Time / Part-Time / On Campus / Online Options The All Nations MTh in Contextual Theology is based on the reality that everywhere the Christian church has taken root across the globe, theologies shaped by the local context have been born. This MTh facilitates the study of this phenomenon and equips students to both understand the theological, social, economic and historical forces at play in the creation of contextual theologies, and to be effective in facilitating the development of appropriate contextual theologies in diverse local and global contexts. Students are equipped in advanced study and research skills (M1), establishing a robust theological and biblical basis for missional engagement (M2), and giving students a thorough grounding in the field of social and cultural anthropology (M3). In addition to these core modules are two specialist modules; The Methods and Models of Contextual Theology (M8) and The Missiological Issues in Contextual Theology (M9). Students will also have an opportunity to audit a third specialist module should they wish to do so from the range of MA modules in areas of development studies, leadership, and contemporary Islam. |
