THCP201 Ministry Studies

10 cp
Prerequisites
THBS100 Introduction to the Bible and THCT100 What Christians Believe
Teaching Organisation This unit involves 150 hours of focused learning, or the equivalent of 10 hours per week for 15 weeks. The total includes formally structured learning activities such as lectures, tutorials, online learning, video-conferencing, or supervision. The remaining hours typically involve reading, research, and the preparation of tasks for assessment.

This unit introduces students to theory and practice of ministry in contemporary Christian Churches. It investigates biblical and theological themes and historical and contemporary approaches to ministry. The unit may focus on particular forms of ministry (eg Youth Ministry, Care for the Aged, Parish Ministries) but will explicitly link these to the Ministry of the Church to pursue the Reign of God. It provides basic tools and resources from which further study and practice of ministry may proceed.
