Post-Modernism is having a profound influence on the Church, from within and without. Changing ideas about the source and nature of truth are affecting Christians’ lives and ministry. In this course, learners examine current trends in contemporary theology, and how these trends arose. The course focuses on the theologies that were prevalent in the 1960’s, including Theology of Hope, Liberation Theology, Feminist Theology, Process Theology, New Age Theology, and four forms of Post-modern Theology. Students are encouraged to draw from the course content so as to relate and communicate better to their post-modern world.
Legacy CollectionThis course is part of a collection of courses taught by world-class evangelical professors from across the globe on a variety of topics.

I enjoyed the course, Some areas of improvement would be if the teacher applied better applications. For example there were some difficult areas to understand and if he tried to explain these areas in a simplified manner perhaps with modern day examples the ideas would have come across better. Apart from that I think he did a fair job. Thank you, In Christ
