Description
This course will focus on comprehending the ideals of community and oneness as expressed through the theology and praxis of Howard Thurman. The course will explore Thurman's praxis of community across racial, sexual, cultural, religious, and national boundaries. Students will wrestle with questions such as how spiritual disciplines may become an effective tool for social ministry/transformation and how Christians understand/live the dialectical tension between mysticism and social action. This course can be counted as a MTS concentration elective in Theology as well as in Religion and Society. Pre-requisite RSC 100 or THS 120.
