Description

These two seminars, listed as such because they are designed to be taken in a two-week sequence, place emphasis on the pastoral task of interpreting the biblical text in preparation for teaching, preaching, and theological reflection. Week one is a discussion of the text and science; week two is developing the art of preaching to coincide with the themes of the Part I seminar and take into account the evolving cosmos, new ideas of creation, questions or divine action, eschatology, and theodicy as examples.
