BCM 243 - Justice and Mercy: Theological Anthropology

Credits: 4

What does it mean to be human? Theological anthropology explores this question by emphasizing the transformative nature of our relationship to God and our participation in the cultures and societies in which we develop our identities. This course offers students the opportunity for theological reflection on the doctrines of creation, Christology, soteriology, and eschatology in dialogue with current issues of global justice so that we might be agents of God’s mercy toward our fellow human beings.
