Description

This course will provide a theological framework for interpreting the dialectic of conversion and grace in order to promote a more intentional and wholehearted response to this dangerous and exciting divine/human encounter. Toward this aim, students will study the dynamics of conversion and grace as they emerge directly and verifiably out of concrete and ordinary human experience. Conversion will be examined as a breakthrough that occurs for individuals and communities at the intellectual, moral and religious levels, making new challenges possible and new horizons available.
