Theology that Starts in the Toes


Theology that Starts in the Toes:
Why and how to bring our bodies into the practice of spiritual leadership and discipleship

Thursdays, February 22 & 29, 2024
1:30pm ET - online


From the early days of Christianity, theology has been in dialogue with other areas of human knowledge as we seek to understand complex truths about God, the universe, and humanity. For most of history, philosophy was theology's primary dialogue partner; over the last century, social and neurosciences have replaced philosophy in the western world as the dominant way to understand human experience.

Join us for this Learning Centre series sessions exploring why and how we might integrate insights from social and neurosciences into our Christian reflection and ministry leadership. 

In the first week we'll look at human bodies, emotions, and how we form bonds with one another. In the second week we'll look at the systems and structures within which we live and function, and explore how power might function to create driving individuals communities ecologies.

Learning Centre sessions are recorded and made available afterwards for those who sign up but cannot attend in person
