Introduction to Christian Spirituality

Dr. David Sherwood, Associate Professor of Ascetical Theology, Nashotah House

AT 501H

Introduction to Christian Spirituality is the first of two courses that together provide a comprehensive introduction to ascetical theology including an overview of the general literature of Christian spirituality and its historical development. AT 501H concerns the individual’s spiritual life and surveys the spiritual literature of the first fourteen Christian centuries. The course has a dual focus on the academic basis of the Church’s spiritual tradition and the student’s experiential appropriation of that tradition, and so the course contains elements meant not only to foster in participants an intellectus fidei (a faithful understanding), but also to assist in developing a habitus fidei (a faithful character) that is embodied in a personalized praxis fidei (a faithful practice).

The first course in the writings of the New Testament surveys the historical, religious, and social world of the New Testament, and introduces various critical and literary-theological methods for the study of the New Testament in general. The Gospels are then surveyed in terms of content, literary structure, critical issues, and theological emphasis. The underlying aim is to gain an understanding of the four unique portraits of Jesus provided in the canonical Gospels. The course also examines the development of the Christology of the New Testament and the modern debates about and constructs of a Historical Jesus as opposed to the Real Jesus of the four canonical portraits.
