SUMMARY:Winter Non-Credit Course\, "Saint Paul: The Life and Letters of the Apostle to the Nations"
DESCRIPTION:6:00 Dinner | 6:30 Lecture \nThis weekly non-credit course is open to current students and faculty. Registrants are free to attend as many sessions as they choose. Sessions do not presuppose previous attendance or prior knowledge of the subject. \n\nWho was Paul and what was his ‘good news’? What does he mean by faith or by “principalities and powers”? After Jesus himself\, perhaps no Christian personality has evoked such admiration\, so much controversy\, and so many questions. This course will examine the life and thought of the Apostle Paul through focused presentations on several of his letters. The first presentation will introduce the study of Paul\, and following presentations will examine his letters\, including 1-2 Thessalonians\, Galatians\, 1-2 Corinthians\, and Romans\, from a variety of perspectives. No prior reading or knowledge is expected and Bibles will be on hand to read and discuss passages of Paul’s letters. \nIntroduction to Paul and his Study\nJan. 14  |  Fr. Paul Mankowski\, SJ \nFirst and Second Letters to the Thessalonians\nJan. 21  |  Justin Howell\, University of Chicago \nLetter to the Galatians\nJan. 28  |  Fr Donald Senior\, CP\, Catholic Theological Union \nFirst Letter to the Corinthians\nFeb. 4  |  Cameron Ferguson\, University of Chicago \nSecond Letter to the Corinthians\nFeb. 11  |  Cameron Ferguson\, University of Chicago \nLetter to the Romans (Chapters 1-8)\nFeb. 18  |  Fr.

SUMMARY:Synodality in the Era of Pope Francis: Principles and Possibilities for Ministry in an Increasingly Hispanic Church
DESCRIPTION:Pope Francis’ pontificate continues to signal a particular way of being church for our day\, building upon the vision of the Second Vatican Council as well as the energy of Latin American Catholicism. Hispanic ministry in the United States for decades\, in close dialogue with the Council and the richness of Latin American theological reflection\, has embodied major elements of what today we would call a synodal outlook. This workshop explores key dynamics that identify Catholic Hispanic ministry while proposing models of ministerial action for the rest of the church in the U.S. rooted in the particularity of the Hispanic Catholic experience. \nOpen by Invitation Only. Dinner and readings will be provided. This event is made possible by a grant from the Our Sunday Visitor Institute. \n\nSinodalidad en la era del Papa Francisco: Principios y posibilidades para el ministerio en una iglesia cada vez más hispana \nEl pontificado del Papa Francisco sigue apuntando a una manera particular de ser iglesia en nuestro día\, la cual se fundamenta en la visión del Concilio Vaticano II y la energía del catolicismo latinoamericano. Por décadas\, el ministerio hispano en los Estados Unidos\, en diálogo cercano con el Concilio y la riqueza de la reflexión teológica latinoamericana\, ha encarnado elementos esenciales de lo que pudiésemos llamar actualmente una perspectiva sinodal. Este taller explora algunas dinámicas claves que identifican el ministerio hispano católico y propone modelos de acción ministerial para el resto de la Iglesia en los Estados Unidos partiendo de la particularidad de la experiencia católica hispana. [Nota: el taller será en inglés\, aunque se hará referencia a ciertas categorías y recursos en español]. \nSe requiere invitación. Cena y lecturas serán proporcionadas. \n\nQuestions concerning this event can be referred to Michael LeChevallier.

SUMMARY:American Catholic Contours and Detours in a Fifty-Percent Hispanic/Latino Church
DESCRIPTION:Free and Open to the Public \nThe familiar expression “American Catholicism” often evokes mainly the presence and heritage of Euro-American Catholics and how this group defines religion\, culture and politics in our nation. Though narrow and de facto blind to the contributions of many other groups that have been central to defining the American Catholic experience\, this perception finds its ultimate challenge in the fact that nearly 50 percent of Catholics in the U.S. today are Hispanic/Latino. In this lecture Ospino explores key implications for church and society of being American Catholic in a largely Hispanic/Latino church. The lecture proposes a vision for ecclesial and intellectual engagement\, a roadmap for American Catholicism in the rest of the century. \nCosponsored by the Center for Latin American Studies\, the Religion in the Americas Workshop\, and the Theology and Ethics Workshop at the University of Chicago. This event is made possible by a grant from the Our Sunday Visitor Institute. \n\nDr. Ospino also gave a workshop on Wednesday\, March 4th\, open by invitation-only\, entitled Synodality in the Era of Pope Francis: Principles and Possibilities for Ministry in an Increasingly Hispanic Church.

SUMMARY:CANCELED: The Economy of Pope Francis
DESCRIPTION:Due to restrictions put in place in response to the spread of COVID-19\, this event has been postponed. We look forward to scheduling similar programming in the future.\nDoes this “economy kill?” Pope Francis denounces “throw-away cultures” and “economies of exclusion and inequality.” Does Pope Francis’s thought on the economy reduce to a Jeremiad? How does his economic vision align with or diverge from the teachings of recent other popes on the economy? How might his critiques be compatible with or improve upon a free-market economy and work towards greater human flourishing? Join for a discussion between international economists and a moral theologian on Pope Francis’s economic vision and what a response to his critique of our “throwaway culture” looks like in practice on an individual\, communal\, and global scale?
