Interfaith Leadership and Religious Diversity in America

3 credits · Divinity School

What role can religious differences play in our collective life as a force for justice? How can religious communities embrace diversity in their worship and social lives? What counts as a "religion" in a time of "nones" and "nons"? By critically and constructively engaging core concepts and key strategies of leadership in the interfaith movement, this course engages the social, political, and religious challenges of religious diversity in the United States while seeking also to equip students with practical experience than can enhance their ministry and justice-making work.
