SPECIALIZATION - 5 COURSE SERIES


Rediscovering the Heart of Methodism includes five courses where anyone,
especially clergy (including local pastors in licensing schools), can develop
core capacities for innovative leadership within the Wesleyan tradition.
Throughout the series, we’ll focus on different aspects of Methodist theology
and history to help you develop your own spiritual practice. Each course
includes interactive video lessons from Duke Divinity School faculty and
Methodist leaders, highlighting diverse expert voices. This course series draws
lessons from the richness of Wesleyan  history and tradition to revitalize
Methodism’s place in the world today.  

All courses can be taken either as a group within your own spiritual community
or individually. Each course includes a PDF workbook that includes exercises to
accompany each lesson and optional discussion guides for group meetings. This
Duke Divinity+ Specialization will deepen your understanding of scripture,
mission, spiritual practices, innovation and leadership through the Methodist
faith

Applied Learning Project

You’ll be able to download a workbook tied to each course that allows you to
reflect on and cultivate your own spiritual practices. This workbook can be used
to facilitate group discussion in your community or act as an individual guide
to enrich the course.

EMPHASIZING CHRISTIAN FORMATION

Course 3•5 hours
Course details

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

Welcome to Emphasizing Christian Formation. This course examines how Methodism’s
deep-rooted attention to Christian formation can nurture both gifts and
character in our communities. We’ll see how Methodist formation hinges upon the
Methodist doctrine of holiness. We’ll consider how innovations in the
complementary practices of preaching and fellowship were directed to holiness
and fueled the growth of Methodism in 18th-century England. We will also
consider how education contributes to our growth as disciples of Christ. Drawing
on these lessons allows us to rethink the practices of our own communities.
Finally, we will learn that the Methodist way of Christian formation finds its
fullest expression in prayer.

Throughout four weeks, you will learn the definition of Christian formation— and
how to connect this to your church and individual practices and forming diverse
communities of faith. In each week of the course, you’ll be asked to reflect on
scripture to guide you to take practical steps in how to incorporate theology in
your own worship, fellowship, teaching, and mission. If you are a pastor or
ministry professional in need of Continuing Education Unit (CEU) credits for
your professional development, CEU credits are available for this course. Upon
successful completion of this course, you can provide your Coursera certificate
and the course description to your employer for recognition of earning 0.5 CEUs.
Contact divinityonline@duke.edu with any questions regarding CEUs for this
course. Each of the 5 courses in the Rediscovering the Heart of Methodism
specialization is worth 0.5 CEUs, for a total of 2.5 CEUs for completing all of
the courses. This course is part of the Rediscovering the Heart of Methodism
series. This is one of five 4-week online courses designed to help engaged
laypeople and clergy (including local pastors in licensing schools) develop core
capacities for innovative leadership within the Wesleyan tradition. Through this
series, we hope you will experience a deeper grounding in the distinctive
elements of Methodism at its best, and a renewed capacity for hopeful,
imaginative participation in the mission of God.
