Becoming A Missional Church

Summer Class 2014
April 28 – May 2
8:00 AM – 5:00 PM

Our understanding of the Church, both implicit and explicit, shapes the way we ‘do’ church. In this course, we will examine our understanding of the Church in light of the biblical teaching that the Church is the people of God sent into the world (1 Peter 2:9; John 20:21). We will then explore what it means for a local congregation to be a missional church and to live out its missional calling in the world.

Dr. Minho Song
Served as professor of Missions and NT at Asian Theological Seminary from 2000-2004. Since returning to Canada, he has been serving as senior pastor of Young Nak Korean Presbyterian Church of Toronto, Canada.
