SPM 504 Evangelism and Discipleship in Sport

This course will examine the complex relationship of sport and religion throughout history.  When sport and religion are combined current societal views need to be addressed through the lens of a biblical framework, therefore students apply critical thinking skills to formulate a biblical response to each of these.  Students will examine trends in research, analyze data and develop strategies for evangelism and discipleship within the sport setting. Students will identify qualities of a good mentor leader which will equip them to be effective in ministry.
