Minority and Ethnic Groups Multicultural Education Spirituality vocational occupation ekklesia missio dei kingdom of god spiritual transformation north american church The purpose of this project was to impact community leaders of Columbus, Ohio to understand how to develop a low-income inner-city community based upon kingdom of God economic principles through a ten-week study. The scope of research included biblical, theological, historical and contemporary writings on Christian community development and transformational leadership. The design of the project was to develop a community of Christ followers who will use Christian education and spiritual formation to bring fellowship (koinonia) and restoration to a low-income African-American community.The results of the project revealed that the participants desired to see the City Church of Columbus operate in solidarity to bring the kingdom of God to our city. The participants and the residents, who live in a marginalized community, had a high transformational experience. The participants had a paradigm shift regarding the understanding of the Scriptures. They understood that they were to bring the rule and reign of God to their neighborhoods by using their occupational vocation. 2019-11-20 English text Ashland Theological Seminary / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=atssem1574178123464598 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=atssem1574178123464598 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
