COURSE DESCRIPTION

Pastoral leaders often find themselves simultaneously walking on eggshells while juggling roles and responsibilities as they blindly navigate around or through the personal and organizational hazards of ministry. Staying on mission becomes increasingly difficult as vision diminishes in the stress cloud of urgent details and emotional upheaval. Under duress, leaders often make unwise choices resulting in self-sabotage. In so doing, they expose their disconnect between professed beliefs and actual behaviors. What is a leader to do?

While no magic bullet exists to silence emotional triggers, eliminate distractions, or make frustrations disappear, there are tools at a leader’s disposal to help mitigate challenging circumstances and provide spiritual and emotional stability. This course merges biblical and theological truth with emotionally intelligent leadership principles to help prepare pastoral leaders for the rigors of twenty-first century ministry. Students will discover strategies for utilizing emotional and relational intelligence, personality patterns, critical thinking skills, and collaborative, team-building leadership styles.

Current research in the emerging fields of neurotheology and neuropsychology also provide insight into how our brains function regarding belief systems, and responses during moments of stress and anxiety. God created us with built-in components of resiliency, and this class will explore ways to leverage available resources for better spiritual, emotional, and physical health.

In addition, organizational structures can contribute to anxiety and stress. Principles of management and governance will be considered in practical terms as we explore how such mundane matters as bylaws, cultural norms, leading board meetings, managing transition and change, and organizational or operational policies can help exacerbate or alleviate conflict, anxiety, and stress. COURSE METHODOLOGY AND SCHEDULE

The course employs a variety of teaching methods including: multimedia presentations,

storytelling, class discussions, collaborative deliberations, lectures, small group problem solving,

case studies and guest lecturers.

ACADEMIC INTEGRITY It is assumed that students at AGTS will endeavor to be honest and of high integrity in all matters pertaining to Seminary life. A lack of respect and integrity is evidenced by cheating, fabricating, plagiarizing, misusing facilities, removing books and other property not one's own and disrupting classes.

“Cheating is defined as intentionally using or attempting to use unauthorized materials, information, or study aids in any academic exercise. It is assumed that whatever work is submitted is the student’s own work and is new work for that course. Fabrication is defined as intentional and unauthorized falsification or invention of any information or citation in an academic exercise or form. Plagiarism is defined as representing the words or ideas of another as one's own in any academic exercise. One who facilitates any of the above is equally responsible with the primary violator.”[1] Penalties may include restitution, an "F" on an individual paper, exam, or course; loss of campus employment; disciplinary probation; removal from extracurricular activities; and suspension. DISABILITY ACCOMMODATION As defined in Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the American Disabilities Act as amended (ADA), the Assemblies of God Theological Seminary at Evangel University is committed to equal educational opportunities and the provision of reasonable accommodations for students with disabilities.

Glenstone Ave, Springfield, MO 65802, (417) 865-2815 ext. 8215.
