THEO 620 - Church History Pentecost to Yesterd

This course seeks to familiarize students with the large sweep of the history of Christianity as a global religion so that they are able to identify key figures, movements, traditions, and turning points within it, from the early centuries in the Mediterranean world to the world-wide church of today. Attention will be given to the relationship of Christian life and thought to the changing historical, political, and social contexts. Students learn basic historical methodology, craft historical arguments, and make connections between past and present. This course will help students make sense of the complexity of Christianity and will provide them with resources for pastoral ministry and theological reflection.
