Summer 2012 SCUPE courses

Cross Cultural Ministry Intensive (SCUPE M 302)

Three hours — Dr. Yvonne Delk
Organized as a sequence of city-wide experiential learning opportunities, the course introduces students to congregations and faith-based organizations that bring good news through prophetic ministry. Students have the opportunity to engage in dialogue with urban ministry leaders who offer vision, courage, and hope. Course methodology includes contextual experience, theological reflection, social analysis, and dialogue with significant church leaders and the instructor.

SCUPE Supervised Ministry Practicum

Hours vary — Dr. Garnett Foster
Required for students actively engaged in a summer ministry internship, the practicum focuses on personal formation for ministry by integrating work in the ministry setting with SCUPE’s summer academic curriculum. Using a case study approach, it provides a forum for faith sharing, personal self-awareness of gifts and skills for ministry, theological reflection on experience, and peer group reflection on actual ministry in response to the Gospel. It is also the course vehicle for SCUPE’s full-time summer internship field education/ministry credit.
