Description

The focus of this course is on some of the classical biblical texts and their interpreters that urge us to serve and to keep the Lord's commandments. In particular, serving the poor and the loving neighbor will be studied through biblical readings and classic Patristic homilies and Lives of Saints (including more recent ones) who have embodied the spirit of philanthropy and outreach to their communities.

The course will be available for MTS online students (asynchronous) and for traditional/on-campus and remote students in a hybrid classroom.

Prerequisites: None
