MW 720 Mission to Muslim Peoples

Readings: Students are expected to read widely throughout the semester. The goal should be a minimum of 1500 pages, or approximately 110 pages per week. Some readings will be assigned; others will be chosen by the student, according to each one\u27s interests and needs, e.g. research for the papers. Browse in the library stacks, in the following areas: B 741-753 Islamic philosophy BP 1-399 Islam, in general BV 2625-2626 Missions to Muslims DS 35+ Historical, geographical, and political aspects HQ 1170 Women in Islam PJ 6000+ Arabic language and literature Don\u27t neglect the periodicals. Glance through, at least, Islamic Horizons, a general magazine for the Muslim public in the U.S. The Qur\u27an: Read what you can of the Qur\u27an. Some sections will be assigned, or read in class; bring your copy to each class session. You will not be required to read the whole book during the course of the semester. Everyone in ministry to Muslims, however, should be able to say, I\u27ve read it.https://place.asburyseminary.edu/syllabi/2940/thumbnail.jp

MB 610 Learning a Language and Culture

Course Description: (From the ATS Catalog): “The developed generic methods of applied linguistics which equip the cross-cultural worker with methods of acquiring a field language with maximum efficiency.” This course is a follow-up to MB600 / 700: Anthropology for Christian Mission, and a bridge to MB 720: Cross-Cultural Communication of Christianity. We will be concerned with several aspects of cross-cultural living and learning, in order to facilitate communication in our various ministries. The course has several facets, each of which could be expanded into at least a full semester’s course. Being put together into one semester here, these facets will serve as introductions to areas of life-long interest, learning, and possible research. These facets are: An introduction to language and linguistics, as the scientific study of language; An introduction to field methods in cultural anthropology and linguistics; An introduction to learning strategies in language study.https://place.asburyseminary.edu/syllabi/1286/thumbnail.jp
