Starting again Nov. 5 this free MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) is an excellent way for churches and individuals to learn about poverty, change, disease and global health care, education and more. While not every subject is approached from a Christian worldview, the speakers and subjects are very good/leaders in their field. Take it at your own speed. Do the assignments or skip them.
