Institution:

Clarke University

Subject:

Description:

Examination of the relationship between Christian faith and ethics. In our personal, professional and social spheres of life, we face a continual stream of moral questions and problems that make Christian living complex. By exploring a Christian spirituality we discover that our moral choices and actions not only shape us but also affect a wide range of other persons within embedded social relationships. Students are invited to recognize that ethics for Christian living involve becoming a certain kind of person consonant with becoming a disciple of Christ. In the first part of the course, a structural framework for Christian ethics is examined. The remainder of the course is spent examining issues of Christian living in the 21st century. Prerequisite: RELS 100. This course is designated as a foundational religious studies general education course.
