LLLC Seminar I: What Is Truth?

Catalog description

Liberal Learning and Life Calling Seminars are interdisciplinary studies of the foundational questions intrinsic to human existence. Each seminar explores the nature and significance of one of these questions: most fundamentally, within the framework of historic Christian theology and practice, but also in the light of various relevant academic disciplines and contemporary ideologies. The ultimate goal of the seminars is to equip students to better understand the meaning and purpose of life by cultivating an historic Christian vision of human flourishing and the capacity to discern how this vision relates to competing conceptions of human existence. HNR170 focuses on the most central of these foundational questions: 'what is truth?' As the gateway course for the LLLC Seminars, HNR170 introduces students to the nature and purpose of a Christianity, and helps them to understand their lives within the context of a kingdom-of-God calling that thoroughly integrates intellectual, moral, and spiritual formation. Reserved for students in the John Wesley Honors College.
