Religions are intimately connected in our ever-shrinking world. We need to be both deeply formed by Christian sources and broadly informed by interreligious resources to engage this world with confidence and graciousness. This course invites you to cultivate a missional presence in the world that is passionately Christian as well as compassionately interreligious. It accompanies you through various religious beliefs, practices, and communities to learn about unexpected divine wisdom in unexpected places.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This course will expand students\u2019 religious knowledge through a respectful study of core beliefs and practices of the major world religions, challenge and enhance our spiritual practice by learning from God\u2019s witnesses in different places, and provoke theological wisdom that can rejoice in the particularity of Christ while respectfully celebrating the universality of God.  This course session will be led by John Noggle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Learners will need to have a copy of Stephen Prothero\u2019s book, God is not One: The Eight Rival Religions that Run the World \u2013 and why their Differences Matter<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
