  • BTH 4430: Pneumatology

    3.00 Credits
    Crossroads College (Closed)

    The primary of objective of this course is to construct a coherent theology of the Holy Spirit based both on biblical accounts and on the Church's attempts to make sense of its experience of the Spirit throughout its history. Accordingly, students devote the first part of the course to examining key scriptural passages and key moments in the Church's history that provide insights into the Spirit. They then bring these insights to bear on contemporary theological and pastoral issues as they relate to the Holy Spirit, all with the goal of providing a systematic description of the Spirit's activity. Special attention is given as to why a "theology" of the Holy Spirit is so difficult to achieve, and why Protestant theologians (including those belonging to the Restoration Movement) have neglected this important doctrine. Prerequisite: BTH 2400. Offered: on demand and when feasible. Weedman, staff

  • BTH 4450: Christian Ecumenical Theology

    3.00 Credits
    Crossroads College (Closed)

    This course considers the place of ecumenical theology within the overall mission of the church. The course begins by examining the priority of Christian Unity for the mission of the church. It then considers various attempts to realize the Church's unity, including the early Church's struggle to find the consensus fidelium, the reasons for division, and the successes and failures of modern ecumenical movements. Special attention is given to the "New Ecumenism" and its attempt to balance unity with truth, especially in light of the Stone-Campbell Movement's traditional plea for a unity-in-truth. Although the class considers ecumenical issues within Protestantism, it is based on the assumption that the key ecumenical issue concerns unity between Protestants and Catholics, especially in light of such movements as Evangelicals and Catholics Together. Accordingly, the course devotes a substantial amount of time considering ecumenical issues between Catholics and Evangelicals. Prerequisite: BTH 2400. Offered: yearly. Weedman
