Master of Global Urban Ministry (MAGUM)
普世城市宣教碩士
Impacted by globalization and migration to cities worldwide, over half the world now lives in cities. Immigration has changed the nature of urban challenges and opportunities. These realities can produce fear, anxiety or excitement, enthusiasm and hope. Today, like never before, we have the opportunity to catch God's global Kingdom Tsunami spreading throughout the world. It is our responsibility and challenge to seek ways to not only become a part of God's mission globally but understand the realities that help us become transformational servant leaders in our own contexts.
For people to cope and work effectively and creatively within current world trends, leaders need to possess new knowledge, skills, emotional and spiritual wisdom.
