Summer Electives: May 17 – June 17, 2021
Attend in-person or online!
CL 547 Carmelite Mysticism (2 credit hours), taught by Dcn. Tracy Jamison, Ph.D., will be held on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, 7:00pm to 9:40pm, May 18 through June 17. An overview of the spiritual life will be presented and discussed according to the mystical doctrines of Saint Teresa of Avila and Saint John of the Cross, as synthesized by Blessed Titus Brandsma, OCarm, and Blessed Marie-Eugene of the Child Jesus, OCD, who describe and understand spiritual development as the ordinary outcome of the consistent practice of the theological virtues of faith, hope, and charity. Basic practical norms for a truly devout Catholic practice of vocal, mental, and contemplative prayer will be introduced and explained. Participants will need to possess sufficient leisure time during the week to complete the assigned readings and the study questions for each class.
S 614 Theology of Evangelization (2 credit hours), taught by Alan Mostrom, Ph.D., will be held on Monday and Thursday evenings, 7:00pm to 9:40pm, May 17 through June 16. This course takes a systematic, historical, and practical approach to the theology of evangelization. We consider what the Christian obligation to evangelize reveals about the Trinity, Christ, the mission of the Church, the moral life, and last things. After considering the theological foundations of evangelization we survey the history of evangelization from a variety of perspectives – personal, diocesan, and missions to evangelized nations. Finally, the course synthesizes the theology of evangelization and the history of evangelization with the aim of developing concrete strategies for evangelization today.
Both courses are now accepting students in-person or online. To register, contact the Office of the Registrar at njobe@mtsm.org.
