This course explores the role of the physical body and taking action in bringing about God's kin(g)dom (or living up to one¿s highest spiritual or religious ideals). Students investigate these themes in select life practices and practices of faith such as body sculpting, congregational meals, and dialogue. Rather than focusing on the content of faith or treating faith as if it were mostly concerned with right thinking, our accent will be on experiencing and enacting faith. Through an introduction to practical theological method, students will engage in mini-field research and reflect on it using course readings.
