Course Details for Master of Theology
Henderson campus
Summer 2020/2021
R215.830 Theologian in Context
This course is a close study of a major movement within contemporary theology globally—Radical Orthodoxy—and its leading figures such as John Milbank. Radical Orthodoxy attempts to show how the Christian faith can respond to the challenges of modernity and the critics of Christianity. Although God is making a comeback in our society, popular culture still takes its orders from the Enlightenment, a movement that denied faith a prominent role in society. Today, many are questioning this elevation of reason over faith. How should Christians respond to a secular world that continues to push faith to the margins? This course will challenge and encourage pastors and thoughtful laypeople interested in learning more about currents in contemporary theology.
