Global University Research Paper

Globalization refers to the development of an integrated world economy, exchange of cultural views, thoughts, and products (Wikipedia, 2013). Pologeorgis (2012) states that, essentially globalization began with the exploration and settlement of new lands. Communication and transportation advances have aided in this process.

The United Methodist Church is growing and it is happening in nontraditional areas. Between 2005 and 2013 outreach ministries connected the UMC with diverse communities and created over 130,000 new disciples in His image. Outreach ministries believe in providing sustenance to who are without basic needs and envision a day without want. On this foundation, missionaries built programs and created an opportunity for growth. Through ministry, the UMC continues to provide support and generosity to those who need help while transforming missionaries’ actions into disciples across the globe. UMC apportionments equip ministries and change the world.

This course has impacted me tremendously. Many pre-conceived notions of missions and methodology of fulfilling the Great commission have changed. The Great Commission, found in Matthew 28:16-20 contain Jesus’ final words to His disciples. He told them, “Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Before taking this course, I never understood the concept of the “nations” being people groups. I always thought of them as geo-political divisions. I can actually perceive many different people groups in my neighborhood, and now understand that even though they live in America, they do not relate the same way as other Americans. This is due to their cultural and ethnical background among other

The study of the larger world and our society's place in it is called Global Perspective. Our society uses global perspective in order to stay connected as well as informed with the world. In fact our world is connected more so now than ever because of technology; computers, phones, televisions, radios etc. Now people all over the world can listen to any type of music that they desire; Beyonce, Train, Edith Piaf, Rammstein. Say someone you know has a craving for Italian cuisine. This person could go through all the pain and suffering of trying to plan a trip to Italy to try true Italian food. Or this person could simply go on YouTube or even a cooking website to prepare their own Italian dish. People don't realize that even simple things like

Abstract: This paper presents a middle-belt pedagogy as a cross-cultural Christian education in the context of Middle Eastern and Northern Africa. From a biblical interpretation of Matthew 15: 21-28, she draws out a biblical pedagogical model with her own experience of teaching in a middle-belt in Nigeria. Esther is a native South Korean, and studied in Korea (B.A. in Christian education, M. Div., and M.A. in Christian education) as well as in the U.S. (M.A. in Religion and Psychology and Ph.D. in Christian education. She served several churches as Christian educator and as ordained pastor of Riverside Presbytery in PCUSA, and taught courses in International Theological Seminary, Presbyterian Theological Seminary in America, and Jos ECWA

Every culture is corrupted by sin. At the same time, the gospel of Jesus Christ is powerful: Societies can be transformed.” As a result, the missional model can be suitable to the congregation, if it is learned and the congregation teaches the importance or significance of the missional model. Likewise, attractional model is fitting as well, depending upon the hunger and thirst a person may have about the truth of God demonstrated in others. In fact, a personal observation prefers both models to be the best, because both models can make an impact in the lives of the community. By the same token, both models will do well for the congregation, because it is the exaltation of Jesus Christ and God’s love for the world that make a difference in reaching God’s people. Trull and Carter, “One fact remains: the church is in the world and the world is also in the church. A community, therefore, can be for a minister both a threat and an opportunity.” In other word, programmatic should not overpower systematic, nevertheless a little of both can be of use to help minister to the congregation and the congregation to the

The idea of spiritual formation has somehow gotten lost in the shuffle of “going to church” versus retaining the understanding that we in fact are the church and we carry within us the knowledge and the skill to be transformational. The role of evangelism in Christian education is to aid in church growth and expansion, as well as advancement toward the salvation of souls.

As the world becomes increasingly interconnected, it is imperative to understand how societies interact and the issues they are facing. I have been interested in languages, cultures, and international affairs for many years which is why I have decided to major in Global Studies. To broaden my global perspective, I am currently participating on St. Lawrence University's Global Francophone Cultures program where I am studying abroad in Quebec, Canada; Rouen, France, and Dakar, Senegal. In addition to learning the French language, the main area of focus for this year's program is immigration. One of the courses I am taking is called, “The Age of Migration: Labor Mobility in the EU.” In this course we have read various articles on immigration, researched countries immigration policies, and are studying the economics of immigration.

The flattening of the world due to free trade and globalization has had both negative and positive effects on states. Because the world market has begun to level out, more states are becoming technologically advanced thus increasing the global economy. However, while some states are beginning to catch up, others are remaining at the same level and are at risk for being surpassed, both technologically and economically. So, the flattening of the world is creating both winners and losers; it is important to figure out how we can help those who are on the losing side become more advanced and help them to level out as well.
