Poverty, Diversity, and Social Justice

In January I'll be co-teaching a course at Bakke Graduate University called Poverty, Diversity, and Social Justice. I'm looking forward to facilitating the class and learning from passionate followers of Jesus Christ who are serving in urban contexts around the world. The students who take classes at BGU are usually involved in many different types of urban ministry and a wide range of circumstances.

Poverty. Diversity. Social justice. These are big issues in our modern world, and it is my opinion that followers of Jesus Christ should be leading the way in both learning and practice with these topics. A process of reflection and action leads to meaningful ministry. God is always on a redemptive mission to redeem every person and place in this world, and followers of Jesus Christ should be leading the way.

Bakke Graduate University offers students five life changing degree options: Doctor of Transformational Leadership, Doctor of Ministry, Master of Business Administration, Master of Social and Civic Entrepreneurship, and Master of Global Urban Leadership. Check out their website at www.bgu.edu for more details about their unique graduate level education opportunities and also for specific details about the Poverty, Diversity, and Social Justice class that I'll be teaching in January.
