Cursusdoelen
At the end of this course, you will be able to:
  • recognize and explicate personal religious beliefs and theological preferences, as well as demonstrating their relevance for your own pastoral work;
  • make your own religious beliefs and theological preferences more explicit in relation to professional role expectations;
  • make theologically substantiated choices for pastoral and ministerial work, more specifically in relation to religious counseling and diagnostics, rituals, moral counseling and ethical advice;
  • relate personal religious beliefs and theological preferences (‘subjective side’) to theological theories and concepts from literature (‘objective side’), as proven in the theological evaluation of your own pastoral and ministerial work;
  • comment and reflect on religious beliefs and  theological preferences of fellow students doing pastoral and ministerial work.
Inhoud
During an internship, you will be acquainted with pastoral work and other forms of religious hermeneutic communication. As hospital chaplain, prison chaplain, priest or pastoral minister in a parish or other form of local church, or as professional in any form of religious education, personal religious beliefs and individually preferred theological concepts will influence your work. This seminar stimulates students to make these preferences more explicit, and to reflect on their consequences for pastoral and ministerial work. With the help of literature and support of your fellow-students, you will learn to identify, analyse and possibly transform personal religious beliefs and preferred theological concepts for the improvement of your work in specific pastoral settings. Subsequently you may apply the method of theological reflection to the development of a pastoral research project. A supervised experience in a pastoral setting is central to the learning process of this course.
