THLE 646 - Molders of Theological Thinking

Institution:

Eastern University

Subject:

Theology and Ethics

Description:

This is an elective course exploring the writing of extraordinary church leaders during the past two thousand years. It offers students an opportunity to interact with the writings of Augustine, Aquinas, Calvin, and Bonhoeffer in their context and also in our contemporary contexts. The class will collectively study the four leaders, but the students will have an opportunity to focus on one leader for their major paper. We will listen to speakers who have written on these four leaders, watch how they are portrayed in videos and movies and see how our individual lives and denominational thinking has been affected by them.
