Anwendbarkeit | In Europa und Nordamerika stehen Pastor/innen und Konfessionen vor verschiedenen Herausforderungen. In vielen Ländern geht die Zahl der Kirchenbesucher/innen zurück, und der Sonntag ist zu einem Tag für Freizeitaktivitäten geworden. In diesem Kurs sollen verschiedene Antworten auf diese Herausforderungen untersucht werden, z. B. auf neue Formen der Kirche, postmoderne Ethik und Moral und mangelnde Bibelkenntnis. |

Inhalt des Moduls | Dieser Kurs wird sich mit den besonderen Herausforderungen befassen, vor denen die Kirche im 21. Jahrhundert steht, insbesondere in Westeuropa und den USA. Vor allem der ernsthafte Rückgang der Besucherzahlen und der Mitgliederzahlen in vielen Konfessionen. Die kulturellen und soziologischen Veränderungen, die dazu geführt haben, und die - teils ungewöhnliche - Art und Weise, wie die Kirchen darauf reagiert haben, z. B. mit Emerging Churches oder "Fresh Expressions". Weitere Herausforderungen haben sich in den Bereichen Ethik und Moral, mangelnde Bibelkenntnis und Abweichen von orthodoxen Überzeugungen ergeben. In jedem Fall stehen die Pastor/Innen an vorderster Front und müssen auf neue Situationen reagieren, ohne notwendige Unterstützung durch eine angemessene Pastoraltheologie zu haben. |
