    Developing Competencies for the Intercultural Journey: Designing, Facilitating, and Evaluating a Program to Develop Intercultural Competencies for Culturally Diverse Missional Leaders in a Multicultural Urban Context

    No full text
    Bibliography: leaves 174-183.The urban landscape of Toronto is radically changing. People from around the world with different customs, values, and beliefs are now living in close proximity to each other. To effectively engage in ministry in such a multicultural context will require leaders to intentionally develop competencies for their intercultural journey. This research project examined how ten three-hour sessions of training delivered over a l6-week period impacted the intercultural competency of eighteen Christian leaders from diverse cultural backgrounds. Three conceptual models that were foundational in designing this training: Bennett's "Developmental Model of Intercultural Sensitivity" (Bennett 1998), Deardorff’s "Process Model of Intercultural Competence" (Deardorff 2006), and Berry's "Model of Acculturation" (Berry 2005). This action research project utilized a mixed method research approach. The primary quantitative data regarding the participant's intercultural development was gathered using the Intercultural Development Inventory (IDI) as a pre-post assessment instrument. Qualitative data was collected through personal interviews, focus groups, facilitators', observations, and mid-term and final evaluations. Both the IDI assessment and participant feedback suggested a significant development of intercultural competency of the members of the study group, indicating that a training intervention such as this could increase a leader's motivation, cultural self-awareness, knowledge and skills enabling them to navigate the complexities of intercultural ministry. The findings also suggest the most effective components of the training and how they might be transferable to other intercultural training programs.Thesis (D.Min.)--Tyndale University College & Seminary, 2014."This is a research portfolio submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Ministry, Tyndale Seminary."For AODA accommodation, including help with reading this content, please contact [email protected] – Theological Rationale – Precedent Literature – Research Methods -- Research Findings and Analysis – Outcomes and Conclusio

    The Shi’as Lebanon and Their Journey Out of Marginalization and Poverty. Lessons for Missions in the Middle East

    No full text
    Bibliography: page 290-309The focus of this thesis is to understand how Islam conceptualized poverty and how this understanding, along with other factors, enabled the Shi'ite community in Lebanon to move out of the margins of society and out of poverty. The objective of this thesis is to identify lessons from the Shi'ite community's empowerment, for the church and Christian missions in the Middle East, in order for them to be more effective. This thesis reviewed the Old and New Testament's teaching on poverty using a social - historical lens in order to understand the context of the teaching on the care for the poor. It then explored what the teaching and practice of the early Church was and its resulting impact. It also used specific theoretical paradigms to analyze and understand the nature of poverty. The end result of this thesis is the development of a model for empowering communities to move out of poverty.Thesis (D.Min.)—Acadia University, Acadia Divinity College, 2014.For AODA accommodation, including help with reading this content, please contact [email protected] – Research Methodology – The Biblical Basis to Understand the Poor and Poverty: The Old Testament – The Biblical Basis to Understand the Poor and Poverty: The New Testament: The Gospels – Teachings and Practices of the Early Church: The New Testament and Church History – Theological Challenges – Theoretical Paradigms to Understand Poverty – Islamic Perspectives on Poverty – Moving from the Margins: The Empowerment of the Shi’ites of Lebanon – Conclusion – Appendices -- Bibliographyhttps://dam-oclc.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/98d1e646-01b2-4cbe-ba23-bcf8309afe9

    Haggai 2:5a: Translation, Significance, Purpose, and Origin

    No full text
    Résumé : Ag 2:5a pose de nombreuses difficultés au niveau de sa critique textuelle et authenticité, de sa relation à son contexte, et de sa traduction, son sens et son but. Ayant évalué plusieurs hypothèses concernant divers aspects de ce texte, l’A. considère que 2:5a est une interpolation, rajoutée à 2:4-5, dont le but était d’expliciter l’attitude d’Aggée face à deux sujets de débat de l’époque : le statut de l’alliance du Sinaï et de l’esprit de Yahvé. L’interpolation souligne que, selon la pensée d’Aggée, l’alliance du Sinaï restait en vigueur et n’était pas supprimée par une nouvelle alliance, et que la présence de l’esprit de Yahvé n’impliquait pas que l’ère eschatologique était déjà arrivée. L’auteur de l’interpolation aurait fait partie d’un cercle proche du prophète Aggée, travaillant après la rédaction principale du livre, mais néanmoins assez tôt dans l’époque perse.69-89For AODA accommodation, including help with reading this content, please contact [email protected]
