This course is an exploration of the historical. rise of the broad Evangelical movement and its internal theological particularities. The course will cover material from the Reformation through the British Isles in the 17th and 18th centuries and examine the profusion of Evangelical expressions in contemporary North American Christianity. Questions of evangelical identity and coherence will be discussed as well as recent theological tensions within North America.

The first half of the course will be devoted to the historical narrative of Evangelical thought rooted in the Reformation and ending with the Fundamentalist movement. The second half of the class will be more topical in nature, covering contemporary North American Evangelicalism's ecclesiology, theological method, ethics, ecumenical posture, and relationship to pub lib life. The goal of the course is to introduce the modern Evangelical movement to those students who are unfamiliar with it and to provide a trans-denominational perspective for students well-versed in one particular expression of the movement.

This course includes reading and basic knowledge of the core liturgical rites for the Divine Eucharist in the Byzantine (Orthodox and Eastern Catholic) churches, and also includes the liturgical history of the evolution of those rites. Guest lectures will also cover the Eucharistic liturgies of the Oriental Orthodox churches, specifically the Coptic and Ethiopian rites. The course's aim includes not only archaeological-historical knowledge or simple encounter with these texts and rubrics, but also theological grasp of the significance, the reasons, the deep exegetical meanings, and also the 'poetics', which underlie the present form of Eucharistic rites. In the Orthodox Way, in Liturgy, the Orthodox faithful discover the reality of church as community and the final reality of theosis, the way toward God.
