Lives of faith are lived in particular places. This course explores place-based spiritual practices and theological perspectives in order both to connect you to the Boston watershed and to equip you with the skills needed to build relationships and live responsibly in other watersheds you might inhabit in the future. Through readings, case studies, discussion, site visits, writing, and short assignments, we will deepen our knowledge of the Boston bioregion and explore a range of spiritual practices to deepen human relations to the places we inhabit. By the end of this course, you will have developed a portfolio about your current watershed and toolkits for getting to know other places in the future and for deepening your own and others¿ spiritual connections to the places you inhabit.
