March 12, 2019 by Oikonomia Network

Evangelism versus justice. Great Commission versus Great Commandment. Kingdom work versus ordinary work. Proclamation versus discipleship. Gathered versus scattered. Missionaries versus deacons.

There are strong affinities between the way Wesley Seminary fulfills its mission to “prepare Christian leaders to engage in missional ministry locally […]

Seminary Spotlight: Southern Baptist Theological Seminary

March 11, 2019 byKen Magnuson, professor of Christian ethics
