At the start of this course, students together with the lecturer will decide on the content of the literature study. This literature study should help you in constructing a theoretical frame for your thesis in pastoral-/practical theology. Your thesis needs to be connected to the expertise of the lecturer(s) in Nijmegen. Topics of choice are contingency and spirituality in life narratives; (inter)religious learning and communication; religion and conflict, and narrative identity of local congregations.
If there are more students who choose this specialization, there will be a maximum of three meetings.
