God, Self, and Society

The purpose of this course is to introduce students to the dynamics of theological reflection in an academic setting.

Such questions include: What is theology? What is the ultimate horizon of our lives? What does it mean to be human? Who is Jesus Christ? And how can we know and serve the common good?
