Description

Explores the role of story in shaping human life, as human persons and as companions on the journey of life. We will study the stories of significant women and men in dialogue with our own unfolding stories and the great story of faith, particularly Christian. In so doing, we hope to discover more of who we are becoming, and who we are invited to become. We will consider the values and commitments that shaped the lives of outstanding spiritual seekers and ask about their meaning in our world and lives today. Students will choose one particular mentor or model to study in-depth as a major focus of their individual reading, research and writing.
