Theological education today

8/20/2015

 
From Huffington Post - 10 Things You Learn in Religion 101 by Victor Udoewa
These are concepts that you learn in Religion 101 that you somehow don't learn growing up in certain faith communities…

...…These 10 items highlight one of the toughest questions facing theological education today. How can we possibly tell students "The stories in your text are not unique. They borrow from other traditions. Your text is not 'inspired,' etc." and then say "Now go into the world, minister to people, and inspire them?" We've delved so deeply in the social science of religious studies, we have lost the inspirational part of theological education. How do we bring the two together?
This article is quite interesting and well worth the few minutes it will take to read.
