CMIN 482 - Peace Studies and Biblical Justice

3 hours
Throughout the evangelical tradition, there has been an unnecessary disconnect between gospel proclamation and gospel activation, evangelism/salvation and the work of ethics. Throughout this course, students will explore how inextricably evangelism and public witness (through justice and peace) are bound together. Students will explore various definitions of justice, develop a well-informed biblical framework for “just action,” explore the deeply-embedded assumptions of “shalom” within the Scriptures, and anchor this exploration in a robust spirituality of activism.
