CHRISTIAN LDRSHP & FAMILY SYSTEMS

This course will examine the task of Christian leadership through the perspective of family systems. Particular attention will be given to the biblical and theological foundations for key concepts. Students will engage in critical self-reflection on the self and their leadership style as they examine such concepts as the differentiated self, becoming a non-anxious presence, navigating change through conflict, homeostasis, and family constellations. Principles for behavior in relationship will be developed.
