1 Southern Methodist University Christian Theology: Faith Seeking Understanding RELI January 2018 Dr. James Kang Hoon Lee Assistant Professor of the History of Early Christianity Office: 210A Selecman Hall Office Hours: By Appointment Contact: (214) Course Description This course is an introduction to the academic discipline of Christian theology as faith seeking understanding (fides quaerens intellectum, following Anselm of Canterbury) through the study of primary sources, including Scripture Old and New Testaments and the writings of the Christian tradition. Emphasis will be placed on the grasp of fundamental theological concepts through an engagement with primary texts in their historical contexts. Students will also gain facility in reading the Bible through interpretive lenses (i.e. Jewish and Christian commentaries) while exploring the development of Christian doctrine according to major controversies and councils in the Church (e.g. Nicaea I, Constantinople I, Chalcedon, Trent). The goals of the course are: 1. To introduce students to the discipline of theology as faith seeking understanding ; 2. To provide students with a basic knowledge of the sources of Christian theology; 3. To gain facility with various hermeneutical approaches to Scripture (historical-critical, literary, figurative, etc.); 4. To acquaint students with major doctrinal developments and theological achievements in the history of Christianity, and to identify what is at stake in certain theological claims; 5. To explore the relationship between theology and history, with attention to historical contexts, and to consider how theology may transcend historical limits; 6. To assist students in their investigation of major issues, challenges, and questions. Student Learning Outcomes 1. Students will describe, explain and/or employ some of the principles and theoretical methods of religious studies/christian theology. 2. Students will demonstrate the ability to critically reflect on or apply methods, theories, or principles of religious studies/christian theology via a focus on a specific area of or set of issues (see goals of the course above).
2 2 Course Requirements 1. Attendance. Attendance and timeliness are required. Class will begin promptly. Absences and habitual tardiness will result in grade reduction at the instructor s discretion. 2. Class Participation and Short Papers: 50%. Students will engage primary texts, and must come to class prepared to discuss the readings. To that end, students are required to write a brief paper (at least 1 page, no more than 2 pages, approx words) for each unit of readings. NB: These are NOT reflection papers or descriptive papers. They must contain a coherent thesis that explains the meaning of the primary text/s. They may also raise questions about the reading. These papers will be used as part of our discussion, and they will be turned in at the end of each class. Each short paper will receive a grade of,, +, or -. In order to receive full credit for this portion of the course, one must receive 8. For every missing, there is a corresponding drop in the grade (e.g. 7 = B, 6 = C, etc.). If one receives 3 +, one will receive credit for an additional. In addition, the instructor reserves the right to administer pop quizzes on any class day. 3. Final Exam: 50%.
