Topics in Christian Doctrine
- Course Dates: Sat 14 January 2017, 9:30 am to 6:00 pm

Explore ways in which God has been conceived, imagined, and experienced within Christian tradition, and how language about God and to God may be understood and evaluated.
We will focus on God as Trinity and as personal agent and engage particularly with contemporary debates about God in the light of both scientific discourse and post-modern critiques. Participants will experience and reflect on ways in which doctrines of God may be articulated and embodied in the mission, and practices, of the church.
This Saturday teaching day offers the chance to learn alongside Sarum’s ordination and licensed lay ministry candidates. The day will consist of four sessions led by one or more of our Sarum staff and, on occasion, visiting lecturers.
The day is ideally suited to be used as a refresher, to stimulate new thinking, or as a ‘taster’ to what it is like to study at Sarum College. The day begins at 9.30am and finishes at 6pm. Participants are given 90 minutes free time at the beginning of the afternoon.
