Classes at Columbia actually began last Thursday, but Sarah and I were lucky enough to still be on vacation – but it cannot be avoided anymore. Classes begin for us today. I’m excited to get Intro to Christian Ed and Ethics completed down here at Columbia, but I’m even more excited for my Men in Ministry course, we’re reading some great literature – so it should be good. Here are the courses:
- P322: Intro to Theory & Practice of Christian Education: Kathy Dawson
- HD372: Christian Ethics: Mark Douglas
- B662: The Gospel Parables: Stan Saunders
- I620: Narrative, Self, and Other: Wellness and Pastoral Care for, and by, Men in Ministry: Bill Harkins
For those interested, our reading list for Men in Ministry is below:
- Confessions, Augustine
- The Moviegoer, Walker Percy
- The River Why, Duncan
- Boundary Leaders, Gunderson
- Redeeming Men, Boyd, and et.al.
- Calling and Character, Willimon
- Brother to a Dragonfly, Campbell
- The Spirituality of Men, Culbertson
- Jayber Crow, Wendell Berry
- From Wild Man to Wise Man, Rohr and Martos
I think it’s a fabulous list – very excited about this course. And I’m sure the other courses will be good as well. Here we go…
