How would you like to be on the cutting edge of training mission leaders? SIM in Burkina Faso is doing just that for the new initiatives in mission movement in Francophone Africa. Leaders from 11 different countries and from many denominations have come to the Institute Missiologique du Sahel for intensive training in missions, anthropology, leadership, and Islam. The IMS is seeking accreditation to offer courses at both BA and MA levels by September 2011.
Teachers at the IMS have a busy schedule of teaching, discipleship, and interacting with students. You would need to be capable of helping students with research and writing dissertations and of developing field-based components to their courses with real life consequences. We would specifically want you to develop a program of in-depth study of Is*cs and ministry among M*s that will include courses on Is*c thought and practice in West and Central Africa, the life of Mohammed, the Qur'an, and evangelism and discipleship in Islamic contexts. You would also be available to teach other courses related to missions and intercultural studies and to contribute in various ways to the overall function of the IMS.
