THEO 244 - Circling around God: The Mystery of the Divine

3 Credit Hours
Deep within the human spirit, there is a profound need to make meaning and find significance. This course will expose students to some of the most significant thinking found in great theological works. We shall look at the Tao Te Ching, the Baghavad Gita, some poetry from Basho, Rumi, and Gerard Manley Hopkins, along with a selection of Catholic writers, and end our exploration with Martel’s Life of Pi.  For us, the driving question throughout the class will be how do we cultivate our spiritual imagination and what stories are we willing to believe.

This course will satisfy the core area requirement in theology.
