Are you wanting to deepen your grasp of scripture, grapple with some of the Bible’s key themes, and see how they might impact mission today? The BTM unit investigates the biblical theological patterns and missional frameworks that may be observed through critical reflection on major Old and New Testament texts. Such themes include the mission of Israel; poverty; missional hospitality; wisdom; Christology; New Covenant; apostolic mission; political engagement; prophetic witness; and the kingdom of God.
This unit, Biblical Theology and Mission (BTM1), covers a range of themes:
- key patterns in Biblical theology
- engagement with the missions of Israel and the Church
- analysis of specific texts
- evaluation of contemporary biblical theologies.
