COURSE DESCRIPTION:
As a worldwide movement, Christianity is experienced, understood, lived, and propagated in thousands of cultures, myriad languages, and diverse religious contexts today. This emerging intercultural ecumenical context calls for forms of doing theology to match. Intercultural theology offers an important and promising approach to doing theology in our intercultural global theological present. This course (1) examines the origins, history, theological presuppositions, orienting principles, and methodological components of intercultural theology; (2) analyzes prominent intercultural theological proposals; and (3) engages in close reading of selected contextual theologies with a view to exploring intercultural similarities, differences, and learning opportunities.
