What does it mean to live in the world as a Christian and as a Catholic? How does it make sense to believe in a creator God, in Jesus Christ who suffered and died for us, and in the church as the living body of Christ? Especially in this day and age, how does it make sense to hope for the coming of the kingdom of God - a world in which justice and righteousness reign and there is no more suffering and no more tears? This course examines central Catholic hopes and beliefs and explores how to engage them in the joys and sorrows of the contemporary world. In this work, the common ground between Catholicism and other Christian communions is highlighted.

The Bible tells the story of the beginnings of the relationship between God and human beings, but it does so by telling many different stories from many different times. This course provides an introduction to the Bible by examining central theological themes that connect these stories, such as creation, covenant, sin, prophecy, and salvation, as well as the historical roots of these stories, such as the Exodus, the Davidic Monarchy, the Exile, and the life and death of Jesus of Nazareth. At times, this course will also explore the way other disciplines, such as literature, have richly engaged biblical themes.

This course addresses the serious option facing modern people: to believe in God or not. It explores a number of questions: What do we mean when we speak of "God"? Can we know if God exists? What is the difference between "the God of the philosophers" and the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob? Is it reasonable to believe in God? How are particular understandings of God connected to understandings of the human person and the human community? How is human action shaped by different convictions about God? Students will study questions and responses given by major philosophers, theologians, and writers and will explore their own questions and responses.
