IMTH 700 – FUNDAMENTAL THEOLOGY

This course is a study of the character, methodology, and significance of theological knowledge, specifically of Christian revelation.  The first part of the course treats revelation, understood as the fundamental concept of theology—the “science of faith”, as well as the transmission of revelation in the life of the Church.  The second part of the course focuses on the attempt of Fundamental theology to demonstrate how Christian revelation is credible theologically, historically, and anthropologically, for the modern man and woman.  The course will analyze man’s openness to revelation; the relationship between faith and reason; Christology as the foundation of fundamental theology; and the place and the credibility of the Church in handing on revelation.

This course is conducted online through a combination of synchronous, interactive, online video-conferenced meetings in the evening, reading assignments, and asynchronous online discussions and videos through the Schoology educational software platform. Like all IMF courses, it will follow the Saint Vincent academic calendar.

Note: While this course is available to anyone, it is a required course for the Catholic Theology Certificate, the foundational certificate for the Master of Arts in Ministry Degree. All are welcome to take this course for credit or to audit.
