Description
Summary:This article proposes a Wesleyan theological rationale and practical recommendations for revitalized theological education, particularly in university-based schools of theology. The approach integrates a rigorous life-long learning system that includes curricular and co-curricular programmes and contextual learning, with a strong foundation in missional ecclesiology and contemplative, kenotic spirituality. It takes seriously the formational needs of practitioners of emergence Christianity such as the new monasticism, missional communities, and the like, so as to reflect upon best practices of theological education to resource leaders of the inherited church while offering recommendations for empowering leaders of ancient/future expressions of church.
