Description
TE 566 Polity, Structure and Protocol in the Church of God in Christ. The course will employ a historical theology methodology in examining the distinctiveness of COGIC Polity, Structure and Protocol. It explores these governing and liturgical matters as they emerge from the early history of the denomination, as a product of American Christianity in the late 19th Century and the early to mid-20th Century. Specific attention is given to the life and ministry of Bishop Charles Harrison Mason, founder of the Church of God in Christ.
