THEO-520 Christmas: the Mystery of the Incarnation

An integrated theological study of Christmas, attending both to the original event of Christ's incarnation and its ongoing celebration in the life of the Christian church.

Students will develop skills of rigorous theological reflection contextualized within local church practice in order to be better prepared for the Christmas season and its pastoral responsibilities.
