Enhancing our 任务 Program to Meet 21st Century Needs
从我们开始, bt365体育娱乐 has included a strong focus on global ministry — this is why our founder included “missionary training home” in our institutional name. Just as “missionary training home” is still part of our official name, we’re still passionate about missions and the global nature of our mission as a college.
That’s why we are excited for a new approach to missions education and training!
新方法
Over several years we have engaged in prayer, planning and discussion about how missions education can best be done today. Our discussions have included missionaries, missions educators and missionary 领袖s from conservative holiness denominations, 圣经 colleges and missions organizations, from Florida to Pennsylvania to Indiana and around the world.
Every single missionary and missions 领袖 has agreed: a standalone “missions major” isn’t the answer.
在回应, we have developed a different approach that provides missions education and training in numerous ways.
- A standalone 2-year missions degree, the 原子吸收光谱法 in Intercultural Studies and 世界的任务
- A missions minor available to every bt365体育娱乐 BA student, as well as all bt365体育娱乐 alumni with a bachelor’s degree
- A missions track that can be included in the Biblical and 的ological Studies major or a missionscognate in the Integrative Studies major
- Opportunities for cross-cultural learning and service through short-term mission trips, missions conventions, the Intercultural Student Organization, and Engage Ministry Formation.
- Opportunities to learn through experience with six-week missions internships or the 12–24 week Study Abroad Program.
Combined, these approaches make missions training available to every single bt365体育娱乐 student!
bt365体育娱乐 Chancellor Michael Avery, himself a past missions 领袖, comments,
Taking the Gospel to the unreached people groups of today’s world holds enormous challenges — challenges that can and must be faced with new thinking, a variety of approaches and flexible training methods.
bt365体育娱乐’s new approach to missionary training is a bold response to this daunting challenge.
新视野
Our vision includes graduates prepared for a range of vocations with a deep passion for and understanding of missions work. Success looks like…
- Long-term missionaries who use professional skills to open doors for missionary outreach
- Missionaries who serve a shorter period on the field and then bring their missions experience to US churches and ministries
- 牧师, teachers and others who knowledgeably support missions work and share their passion with others
- Laity who support missions organizations financially and with services
In addition to curriculum structures and learning opportunities that enable missions to permeate the college, we’ve also begun a Visiting Professor of Missiology program. 每年, we’ll bring a current or recent missionary or missions 领袖 to campus multiple times for teaching, preaching and mentoring.
的se visiting professors will connect our missions students directly with God’s frontline work in various fields, providing them with multiple perspectives on how mission work can be done.
