Overview
In the current era, marked by the post-colonial period, the effects of globalization have prompted a diaspora movement, predominantly from the Global South to the Global North. This has resulted in a rich tapestry of cultural, ethnic, and linguistic diversity in major Western cities, including Toronto. Consequently, the nature of Christianity is transforming from Western Christianity toward Global Christianity.
This course equips students with the skills to analyze diverse cultures and worldviews, enabling them to communicate effectively across cultural and linguistic boundaries. Emphasizing the development of intercultural competence, the course prepares students to convey messages in ways
that resonate within the recipient's cultural context. By fostering cultural awareness and practical communication skills, students will be equipped to engage meaningfully in multiethnic societies and ministries, both locally and globally.
