Session Xiv Christian Identity & Formation Perveted Liturgies
The document discusses how consumerism has fragmented society and the church, leading the church to lose its communal identity and purpose. It argues that the church needs a new vision of itself as a public body that forms Christian identity and community, rather than seeing itself as just a private club. To do this, the church needs a theological anthropology and soteriology that sees salvation as reordering human desires through communal life in Christ, rather than just meaning-making or escape from boredom.

Session V Commodification & Church
This document discusses the influence of consumerism on the church. It addresses how consumerism has become like a religion with its focus on freedom, choice, and self-creation. Key issues that arise are how consumerism views human nature versus Christian understandings. It also discusses how consumerism approaches the meaning and purpose of life differently than Christianity. The document then examines how consumerism impacts church structures and practices. It concludes by exploring emerging ecclesiologies that provide counters to consumerism through practices like conversion and embracing theological traditions.
Session Xi Personal Lessons & Conclusions
This document discusses lessons learned from planting a church. It addresses:
1) Developing a cruciform identity focused on transformation rather than consumerism or sense-making.
2) Understanding that church is not optional but the ultimate choice to join the body of Christ.
3) Recognizing how consumerism forms us and impacts ecclesiology.
4) Establishing liturgical practices with others to habitually form Christians in all areas of life.
Session Ix The Form Of Church In Scripture
The document outlines four key movements in the Christ event - Advent, Passion, Restoration, and Exaltation - that provide a framework for understanding the form and nature of the Church according to Scripture. It argues that the Church is authorized by the Holy Spirit to represent and participate in these four movements: 1) as a gathering community, 2) as a suffering community, 3) in restoring creation, and 4) in speaking God's words. When the Church loses sight of being rooted in Christ's kingship through these four movements, it risks being ruled by other powers instead of by Christ.

Lesson 3a the church and counseling
This document discusses counseling in the context of the church. It defines what a church is and explains that pastoral care refers to the church's ministries of healing, sustaining, guiding, and reconciling people. Pastoral counseling is a specialized part of pastoral care that involves helping individuals and groups cope with life's pressures and crises. The goal is personal and spiritual growth and healing. All believers are called to support one another. Spiritual direction differs from counseling in that it focuses on cultivating awareness of and relationships with God rather than problem-solving. Emergent churches prefer more informal counseling approaches. The church has the potential to be a caring, healing community and has a divine mandate to care for people.

Project john varela
The emerging church movement aims to make churches more relevant and address why many young people are leaving churches.

The document expresses a desire to see churches become true communities that bring generations together and welcome diversity, and to separate conservative political issues from Christianity in order to focus on Jesus' message of love.

2. He resisted the idea of a "Christian empire" and making the secular world sacred. The earthly city was mixed with good and bad, unlike the eternal city of God.
3. Augustine believed rulers and governments were secondary to the kingdom of God and would ultimately fail. The church experienced the true eternal public community, not secular institutions.
Session Viii Key Forms Of The Church In History
1. Eastern Orthodox ecclesiology views the church as an icon of the Trinity, focusing on salvation through deification and deliverance from corruption rather than Western views of guilt and sin.
2. Lutheran ecclesiology sees the church as both just and sinful, consisting of saints and sinners, and emphasizing the priesthood of all believers and the means of grace through Word and sacrament.
3. Pentecostal/Charismatic ecclesiologies developed as grassroots, experiential movements emphasizing the empowerment of believers by the Holy Spirit in worship, with no single model but generally viewing the church as a fellowship rather than an institution.
Session Vii Public & Private Oikos & Polis
The document discusses the relationship between public and private spheres in early Christian worship and society. It explores how early Christians integrated the household (oikos) into the public sphere (polis) through worship, reconciling the two. Their worship resisted being confined solely to either the private household or public civic realms. The church became a "third space" that incorporated both and redefined human relationships and identity in a political way through shared public worship.
Session Ii Twitter & Social Media
This document discusses using Twitter for an educational session, including exploring preferred learning styles through interactive researching on Twitter, posting questions and thoughts, and tweeting resources and questions/answers.
Session Iv Post Modernity
Postmodernism refers to a break from modernity and the Enlightenment ideals of progress, rationality, and absolute truth. It emerged in the late 20th century across various disciplines and has proliferated into multiple, sometimes incompatible meanings. Key themes of postmodernity include questioning how culture, identity, and meaning are constructed; skepticism of grand narratives and universal ideals; and recognizing the influence of technology and media on society. While there is no single definition, postmodernism broadly critiques modernity and proposes new ways of understanding the world that acknowledge uncertainty and temporary meanings over absolute truths.
Personal Lessons & Conclusions
This document discusses lessons learned from planting a church. It addresses several key points:
1) The importance of developing a cruciform identity in Christ rather than seeking consumerism or escape from ordinary life.
2) The central role of the church in one's identity and life, not as an optional choice but as membership in the body of Christ.
3) How consumerism shapes our habits and formation, and the need for liturgical practices to establish an alternative formation.
4) The balance between structured mission, resources, and plans while also embracing ordinary and mundane rhythms of life in community.
Session I Welcome & Orientation
This document outlines the agenda for Session I of a course on ecclesiology. It includes an overview and orientation section. The schedule details topics to be covered on days 1 and 2, including introductions, the church in context, forms of church in history and in scripture, and emerging church models. It poses questions about the definition of ecclesiology and the frameworks and methods used to study it. Participants are invited to share their own ecclesiological challenges. The session will conclude with a review of assigned texts and a question and answer period.
Session Iii Personal Project & Elective Reading
This document outlines the options and requirements for a personal project assignment. It will count for 45% of the student's grade. Students can choose from four options for their project: 1) conducting specialized research on a topic of their choice, 2) reflecting on their current and future ministry focus, 3) completing a set of assigned general readings, or 4) an interview-based project speaking with churchgoers and non-churchgoers. Each option includes suggested methods and elements that must be covered, such as introductions, conclusions, and bibliographies. Projects will be graded on a rubric from C to A based on how thoroughly they demonstrate understanding of readings, make connections between ideas, and apply learning to their specialized topic or

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375
