This course explores the importance of the city in the ministry of the American Christian church. Students will gain an overview of the city and its importance in biblical and current times. Upon completion of this course students will have increased their knowledge of how cities developed and the roles cities have played in the church as well as the role the Christian church has played in the development of urban areas. Another goal of this course is to immerse the student in elements of the city to gain a better understanding of ministry in the city.
