FRAN 201 - Franciscan Gospel Living in the Contemporary World

3 IUs

by Margaret Pirkl, OSF; Ramona Miller, OSF; Ingrid Peterson, OSF

This course aims to highlight the importance of responding to the Gospel challenge in everyday life. What does it mean to be a Franciscan in the contemporary world? What have we inherited? What is Gospel living?

A study of theology and spirituality as the foundation of the Franciscan Gospel life highlights the relevance of Christian Franciscan values in the contemporary world. In this course, we will strive to evoke critical habits of mind and heart, stimulate a sense of the mandates of living a Gospel life, and encourage Gospel choices in the service of others.
