**Summary**

Are you a storyteller who thrives on communicating biblical truth from an evangelical, Christian perspective? Then let’s talk - The School of Theological Studies at Missional University invites you to submit your resume.

Missional University is a 100% online university whose purpose is to equip Christian non-clergy persons to join the mission of God in the world. With more than 100 faculty and staff distributed across the globe, the educational programs empower the people of God to become world changers related to sixteen vital causes.

Your creativity will shine as you develop content strategies that align with the institution's educational goals, catering to a diverse audience interested in religious studies. Whether it's writing thought-provoking blog articles, creating narratives for compelling videos, or curating content for social media, you will contribute to fostering a digital space where theological discussions thrive. By exploring and highlighting the nuances of African Theology, Asian Theology, Environmental Theology, and other specialized areas, you will contribute to the global dialogue on religion and spirituality from an evangelical perspective.

In this role, your ability to think critically, understand theological concepts deeply, and communicate effectively will be paramount. You'll collaborate with theological experts and the marketing team to ensure that your content reflects the institution's mission and ethos. If you have a passion for storytelling, a deep understanding of digital media, and a keen interest in theological studies, we invite you to be a part of our team, contributing to the dissemination of knowledge and fostering a global conversation on the intricacies of faith and belief systems from an evangelical viewpoint.

Since Missional University is dedicated to training grassroots missional leaders in the evangelical tradition, administrative staff and faculty members must commit to both our faith and ethos statements. Applications will be accepted until the position is filled.
