Summary

This course will explore the intersection of Christian spirituality and social engagement. Against the stereotype surrounding those whom church history has called “mystics” that they are disengaged from the world, this course examines both historical and contemporary movements of spirituality—that is, movements that can be considered monastic or mystical—that were very much engaged in activities of compassion, justice, and advocacy.
