SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
This project explores the ways in which we teach, preach, and think about the resurrectionwithin a church setting. The study presents the point of view that our understanding of resurrection can be opened up through attending to the gap between belief and practice. In other words, what does it mean in our lives today when we say we are a people of the resurrection? Can we think ofourselves as rehearsing resurrection right now? Toward that end a curriculum was developed for an adult study on resurrection, based on the shared praxis model of Thomas Groome.
