THLE 660B - Special Topics: Biography as Theology

Institution:

Eastern University

Subject:

Theology and Ethics

Description:

On earth as it is in heaven means that theos is reflected in anthropos. James Wm. McClendon Jr., in his book Biography as Theology, traces this concept in the lives of politicians, diplomats, Bible scholars and artists. We will use this textbook and others to analyze how in the 21st century we can live theologically, how much the kingdom of God and his will can be reflected in our lives, our families and our churches. The reading list includes Paul Johnson's The Intellectuals, Paul Rusbagina's An Ordinary Man, and Tom Holland's Dominion, the Making of the Western Mind.
