THE-683 Trinitarian Theology and Pastoral Ministry

Students analyze the biblical and historical foundations of Trinitarian Christian theology and seek to synthesize Trinitarian orthodoxy with ministerial practice, especially in the realms of clergy ethics and pastoral care. As a capstone course, this course challenges students to integrate sound theological foundations with consistent ministry practices: a synthesis of orthodoxy and orthopraxy that will define the minister's approach to his or her calling and work.
