TRS 355 The Mission of the Contemporary Catholic
The Second Vatican Council states that it is the mission of the laity to witness, evangelize and sanctify the world. This course will consider how today's Catholics fulfill this mission as they live and practice the faith witnessed for two millennia. We will look at scripture, baptism, spirituality, the theological tradition, the lives of lay saints, the teachings of Vatican II and the post-conciliar Church, and the cultural context of the American Church to identify and understand this mission.
