3 Sheil CORE Seminar: The Gift of Discipleship Discipleship means following the teachings of the Master. It is to be disciplined in our lives. How does our discipleship in Christ manifest itself in our lives? How do we live morally and justly? How do we respond to the world that way? How do we make decisions when the situation is complicated? What is the place of Catholic Social Teaching both as a guide and a witness? This seminar explores those questions and more. REGISTER Tim Higgins facilitates the sessions The seminar meets Tuesdays - 6:05-7:55 pm October 2, 9, 16, 23, 30 Free for students $5 for associate at Sheil or faculty and staff at Northwestern $25 for guests 4 Heresies that Changed the Church CTT Seminar Throughout Church history, theological doctrine was often articulated in response to teachings of otherwise faithful people which the Church finally decided were erroneous statements of faith. Those moments in our past forced the Church to become more precise in its own language and understanding. This seminar will examine 4 of the heretical notions that helped the Church define where it stood and what it believed and the impact that continues to have today. REGISTER: The seminar will meet 4 Mondays from 7-8pm October 22, 29, November 5, November 26 (please note the skipped weeks) Free for students $5 for associate at Sheil or faculty and staff at Northwestern Bible Explorers Resumes Thursday October 5:45 pm - 7:00 pm New Members Welcome!
