Faith Builders Training Institute | Evaluated Learning Experience
Cross-Cultural Communication ICS 342
60 hours in 4 weeks.
August 2019 – Present.
Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able to: identify the steps to servanthood that undergird cross-cultural interactions; initiate and sustain Level 1, 2 and 3 conversations; utilize “The Diamond” as a method of assessing and directing spiritual conversations with non-believers; and initiate and sustain spiritual conversations with nonbelievers.
This course takes students on a journey from the basics of initiating conversations through increasingly sustained dialogue with people different than themselves. A particular focus is on communication of the Christian faith to nonbelievers. Students practice the skills of communication in a variety of settings culminating with several days of face-to-face ministry to prison inmates.
In the lower division baccalaureate/associate degree category, 3 semester hours in Humanities, Cross-Cultural Communications, Social Science, Theology, or Christian Ministries (10/20).
