| Summary: | Ecumenical Theology involves not only the academic study of church-separating issues, but also the ecclesial commitment of each individual Christian. Accordingly, a course on the “History and Theology of the Ecumenical Movement” should utilize the ecumenical experiences of both instructors and students. A variety of pedagogical means can be used to foster such a sharing of experiences: autobiographies, case studies, consensus papers, site visit reports, and preparation of an ecumenical service. In effect, teaching/learning ecumenical theology is similar to language learning that involves cross-cultural experiences. |
