How does theological education equip people to face the challenges of mission and ministry in a changing world? How does Christian presence in society make a difference, and how can the Churches speak prophetically of God's purposes today?

This book suggests how theological education can provide essential opportunities to find encouraging and helpful answers to these questions. It explores the kind of world we live in and asks what kind of teaching and learning experiences help Christians to become people with hearts for mission. It takes a fresh look at elements of the theological curriculum and suggests a new vision and hope for all the Churches. It is also accompanied by a study guide.
