THEO 4063 - A Faith to Die For


Credits: 3
This course will develop an understanding of the moral life shaped by the paschal mystery: Christ has died, Christ has risen, Christ will come again. The initial exploration will be through an examination of Catholic belief and practices (Scripture, liturgy, sacraments, creed) as lived through the example of saints and martyrs within the tradition who lived out the gospel paradox, “whoever seeks to preserve one’s life will lose it, but whoever loses it will save it.” These witnesses attest to the fact that the challenge of living out the radical demands of the gospel is at the same time deeply attractive. Ultimately it is only through embracing a faith to die for that we can discover a life worth living.
