This course seminar will focus on this crucial pedagogical work in both formal and informal settings, reflecting on the deep connections between formal education and our life-long calling to serve as teachers of all of God's children.

Teaching Skills in Intergenerational Worship Ministry

Fruitful worship ministry invites our attention not merely on what happens in our preaching, praying, singing, baptizing, and communing--but also (perhaps most especially!) on how we prepare people to participate in these actions. Equipping people of all kinds--seekers and life-long believers, children and older adults--to participate in worship is one of the great joys and challenges of worship ministry.  While some of this happens in formal settings or in corporate worship itself, much of this equipping, discipling, and teaching  happens in a 1000 informal settings all week long. This course seminar will focus on this crucial pedagogical work in both formal and informal settings, reflecting on the deep connections between formal education and our life-long calling to serve as teachers of all of God's children.

This three-day intensive course at Calvin Theological Seminary is taught by Prof. John D. Witvliet and is open to visitors.
