Ruth Most baptismal services ask candidates for baptism some of the most essential questions in our faith. What would it mean if we took these questions seriously? What would it mean to baptize with integrity? To answer these questions, this course will look at an ancient model of relating worship and evangelism known as the catechumenate, seeing how this model relates to conversion, baptism, and incorporation into a church's worship life. The catechumenate will be explored in both its past historical setting and contemporary attempts to recover it in North America. Of particular interest will be a historical comparison of how certain understandings of God, salvation, and the church find expression in this mode of relating worship and evangelism

Staff Humanity is created in the image of God. A part of what this means is that the creativity and imagination that God uses in creation is rooted in our nature and being. We will examine many ways that people have sought (and continue to seek) to celebrate the Holy God, through Christ, by the Holy Spirit, through expressions of the arts in worship. Topics we will explore include creative writing, music (particularly popular and world music), the visual arts, the environment for worship, drama, and movement and postures for worship. We will develop criteria for guiding us as we select expressions to include in corporate worship events and explore practical ways of incorporating artistic offerings in worship

Staff The course will survey worship, prayers, and community in the context of the Book of Common Prayer from the sixteenth century reformation through the ecumenical liturgical movement of the twentieth century. The British churches will provide the major focus up to the latter years of the eighteenth century when, with special attention to North America, foreign "Anglican" churches begin to modify the exclusively English setting and character of the Prayer Book. Throughout the course students will be encouraged to relate to the developments of this distinctive tradition with those in other parts of the larger Christian community.
