How important is theological training for missionaries? Are there better ways to assess missionary candidates as they prepare for the field? Listen in today as Dave chats with Dennis Greeson, the Dean of the BibleMesh Institute. You’ll learn some new methods for assessment and discover what theological training might look like in the future. Specific questions they talked about:

  1. Why is pre-field theological assessment so important, especially for our current moment in Western culture?
  2. What is at stake given the cultural changes taking place in Western Christianity, especially among evangelicals?
  3. Why is theological training so important? Doesn't such training distract from field deployment, offer little that is of practical use, or emphasize theological precision over missional praxis?
  4. How is the landscape of theological education, and higher education more broadly, changing?
  5. What are some issues that this raises and opportunities that this affords?
  6. How does pre-field theological training serve the mission?
  7. What are some areas and methods of assessment organizations need to think about?
