For our October meeting, the PT Guild will welcome Dr. Andrew Root, Professor and Olson Baalson Chair of Youth and Family Ministry at Luther Seminary (St. Paul, MN). We will be speaking with Dr. Root about his book Christopraxis: A Practical Theology of the Cross as well as his more recent Ministry in a Secular Age trilogy.
The Practical Theology (PT) Guild is a monthly Zoom meeting open to all MDC students and faculty interested in Practical Theology. The PT Guild offers an opportunity to meet outside our regular curriculum to discuss various topics concerning being a good PT scholar. Topics include practice-led research, qualitative research methodologies, theological reflection methods, publishing, current developments in the field, job market and applications, and more. We plan to meet 3 times per semester and once during the spring term. If you would like to receive the Zoom meeting links and email reminders, please contact Elizabeth Millar.
