MIN 756 - Ministry Among Marginalized People3 Units Within the urban landscape, some population groups struggle against a persistent condition of alienation, inequity, and disempowerment. This course invites students to explore strategies for promoting wholeness, justice, and empowerment among these marginalized populations. Gang members, international refugees, and "the working poor" will be studied as extended case studies. Theological frameworks will be developed to help inform what it means to engage in ministry among each of these groups. In addition, students will examine the philosophical and practical dimensions of several local agencies devoted to working among these populations.
