The Ekklesia and the Kingdomization of Your Community | July2024 (Live on Zoom)

There has been a steady shift in Christendom in recent years toward the teaching and application of the message of the Kingdom of God in every nation. The traditional Church is just awakening to its City identity as the Ekklesia of Christ and its mandate to disciple nations fulfilling the prayer of Jesus “May Your Kingdom come, and may Your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.”

This Study Course engages students in interactive discussion, selective reading and research, written assignments, and opportunities for communicating with the instructor online or by email. The “Kingdomization Process” trains believers to become engaged within the society as the salt, the light, and the yeast of the nation. It is a season of “New Wine and New Wineskins”.
