The seminar explores the complex relationship of theology and practice. In addition to a review of major theories of practice/praxis (e.g. Aristotle, Marx, Alasdair MacIntyre, and Pierre Bourdieu) and models of practical theology, the course looks critically and constructively at a variety of practices that characterize Christian life. This is a required seminar for ThD students but is open also to senior MDiv students, with permission of the instructors
