Liberation And Engagement: Toward A U.S. Latino/A Diaspora Missiology, Angel Santiago-Vendrell

The Asbury Journal

Diaspora missiology is emerging in some evangelical circles as the new paradigm that would complement traditional missiology. In this article, I will describe and analyze the writings of three first generation Cuban-American theologians and their understanding of how to construct theology in diaspora. First, I will present the multiple origins of the Latino/a population. Second, the metaphor of the Promised Land will be described and assessed though the lens of the prosperity gospel. Third, the writings of Ada María Isasi-Díaz, Justo González, and Fernando Segovia on theology in the diaspora will be described and analyzed. Finally, a Latino/a missiology of …

Conserjería: Una Expresión Del Ministerio De La Iglesia, Javier Sierra 2014 Seminario Teológico Asbury en el Campus de Orlando

Conserjería: Una Expresión Del Ministerio De La Iglesia, Javier Sierra

The Asbury Journal

Este artículo de introducción está diseñado para introducir los conceptos de consejería pastoral a la comunidad Hispana, la cual con frequencia no tiene un ministerio desarrollado de conserjería pastoral en sus iglesias. Este artículo discute las bases bíblicas para este ministerio y ayuda a definirlo a la luz de la fuerte naturaleza relacional y la práctica existente de dar consejos que se encuentra dentro de las culturas Hispanas. Ver a la consejería pastoral como una extensión del cuidado de la comunidad y como más estrechamente relacionada a la práctica informal de dar consejos, ayuda a que el ministerio de consejería …

Contextual Theological Education In Africa As A Model For Missional Formation, Susan Murithi 2014 Asbury Theological Seminary

Contextual Theological Education In Africa As A Model For Missional Formation, Susan Murithi

The Asbury Journal

This paper argues that teaching of contextual theological education in Africa can aid in missional formation of students, teachers, and their communities. Further, common African struggles are explored as a way of discovering how theological education can be used to address Africa’s unique situation. The paper further asserts that the only kind of education with the power to form humanity is the one that relates to them and addresses their unique situations, and answers their questions. To form missional Christians in Africa, we need contextual education in our training institutions.


Lessons Of The Jerusalem Council For The Church’S Debate Over Sexuality, Bill T. Arnold 2014 Asbury Theological Seminary

Lessons Of The Jerusalem Council For The Church’S Debate Over Sexuality, Bill T. Arnold

The Asbury Journal

The Jerusalem Council (Acts 15) gets widespread attention today as a model for decision-making in the church, especially with regard to the changing cultural mores related to same-sex practices. This study investigates hermeneutical assumptions in two scholarly treatments of Acts 15 in light of the literary and historical context of the Jerusalem Council, including a few exegetical details. The study focuses especially on the specifics of the Apostolic Decree in verses 28-29. The aim of the investigation is to evaluate the chapter’s use in current debates over sexual ethics, and to propose appropriate lessons of the Jerusalem Council based on …
