RGP3815HF
Although art historians have spilled much ink on Rembrandt and van Gogh, the question "How does their art reveal their spirituality?" is seldom asked. Answering that question will be the focus of this course. Henri Nouwen's most popular book, The Return of the Prodigal Son is a reflection on Rembrandt's painting; and Nouwen gave a course at Yale three times in the 1970s on the art and ministry of Vincent van Gogh. We will use Nouwen's reflections as a jumping off point for our own as we consider how Rembrandt's and van Gogh's spirituality is expressed by their art and what that might mean for us today.

TRB3820HF
This course will trace the multi-faceted theme of justice as it unfolds throughout the biblical story. Beginning with an exploration of the impact our own place and assumpions have on our reading, we will then probe the complicated ways in which idolatry, economic justice, racial justice, justice for the land, food justice, justice for the stranger and the migrant, gender justice, colonization and Indigenous justice, and peace and violence permeate the story. This will provide a biblical basis for reflecting on the complexity and challenge of enacting justice and reconciliation in our world today.
