Redlands! Rah, Rah, Redlands! *also spelled Deyatty Summer 2019 | 1 VIEW FROM 305: THOUGHTS FROM THE PRESIDENT’S OFFICE ‘1 + 1 = 3’ n July 1, the University of Redlands 0and San Francisco Theological Seminary (SFTS) merged, creating the new U of R Graduate School of Theology and providing a campus in the Bay Area to host programs from both organizations. Building on our common purpose to “educate both heart and mind,” the partnership leverages strengths of both institutions to create something neither could have offered alone. Thus, the theme of the new relationship, as SFTS becomes an essential part of the U of R, is “1 + 1 = 3.” In this issue of Och Tamale magazine, you’ll read more about how this transformational partnership emerged and the excitement around the new programs being launched. PUMA CARLOS Thanks to the merger, Redlands will extend teaching and counseling programs in the “ In 10 years, I believe we will look back and celebrate the new colleagues, programs, and possibilities the Redlands-SFTS union made possible,” says U of R President Ralph W.

  • Multifaith Continuing Education: Leading Faithfully in a Religiously Diverse World
    Justus Baird: Multifaith Ed for “Lifelong Call to Learn” 9/17/08 1 Multifaith Continuing Education: Leading Faithfully in a Religiously Diverse World Justus N. Baird As a rabbi who directs a multifaith center in a Christian seminary, I often get asked about multifaith education. People ask me, “What curriculum should I use?” or “How can we teach our students about other religions?” Even more often I get asked, “Do you know a Muslim I can invite to speak at our program?” But rarely do I get asked, “Why should we be doing interfaith education at all?” A rabbinic colleague of mine put it to me this way: “I just can’t articulate why interfaith is important to focus on,” he said. What worries him most about serving his congregation is not how much his congregants know about other faiths. “Other than making sure we can all just get along, why does this matter?” he asked. Let’s be honest: most of us know precious little about our own religious traditions, so why should we spend our valuable time learning about other faiths? The aim of this chapter is to articulate what multifaith education is, why it should be part of any continuing education program, and address some of the challenges that confront multifaith education. Part one answers the ‘why do interfaith?’ question articulated by my colleague and makes the case for including multifaith learning in any continuing education program. Part two defines multifaith education and describes various approaches to multifaith education. Part three articulates the challenges and barriers to multifaith education.

  • Interfaith Formation for Religious Leaders in a Multifaith Society: Between Meta-Spiritualities and Strong Religious Profiles
    Interfaith Formation for Religious Leaders in a Multifaith Society: Between Meta-Spiritualities and Strong Religious Profiles Tabitha Walther Religious leaders today need new skills to meet the religiously pluralistic societies in which they serve. The aim of this essay is to explore this plur- alistic challenge and find approaches that would effectively educate relig- ious leaders for the multireligious context in which they will serve as religious professionals. Cultural and religious diversity is not new. What is new is that this plur- alism is experienced by every citizen and not just by cultural or religious mi- norities. Western societies have been pluralized. Migration and globalization have hastened this process of pluralization in ways previously unknown. Re- ligious leaders for today and tomorrow need to develop tools to serve effec- tively in a multireligious context. They will not just minister to their own people, but beyond their own faith traditions, in between them, and within multiple religious traditions. This is true for a religious community that is multi-religious at its boundaries, as well as for public institutions with multi- religious populations, such as prisons, hospitals, schools, and universities. Tabitha Walther, LTheol, lecturer and trained hospital chaplain, Faculty of Theology, The University of Basel, Missionstrasse 17a, 4055 Basel, Switzerland (E-mail: Tabitha.Walther @unibas.ch). Reflective Practice: Formation and Supervision in Ministry WALTHER 129 Religious pluralism knows many manifestations and is known in all religious traditions. People who are grounded in multiple religious trad- itions, in New Age thought, or people who combine teachings from various religious traditions, ask for spiritual support at critical life moments.

  • What Do College Students Want? a Student-Centered Approach to Multifaith Involvement
    Journal of Ecumenical Studies, 45:1, Winter 2010 WHAT DO COLLEGE STUDENTS WANT? A STUDENT-CENTERED APPROACH TO MULTIFAITH INVOLVEMENT Paul V. Sorrentino PRECIS The author presents research findings about the preferences of college students as they consider coming together with people of other faiths in multifaith settings. He discusses what works well and what does not. Select quotations from interviews are included. The author suggests a practical model for multifaith work on campus based on the principles represented in the acronym “RAM.” Multifaith involvement should include being Respectful toward the beliefs of others, being Authentic to one’s own tradition, and having Meaningful interreligious interaction. Introduction Our university and college campuses focus a great deal of attention on di- versity. This is a proper focus and one that is needed in our society. Religious diversity, however, is often left off the agenda and may be subsumed under a rising tide of secular animosity that says there is no place for religious expres- sion in the academy. The raison d'être of an academic institution is education. We must decide how religion and religious diversity fits into that goal. Should we safeguard the academic enterprise, viewed as largely secular, by making religious expression a private matter? Do we enhance learning by exposing students to various forms of religion? If so, what is the best way to do it? How do we respect differences __________________ Paul V. Sorrentino (Conservative Congregational Christian Conference) has been Director of Reli- gious Life at the Cadigan Center for Religious Life at Amherst (MA) College since 2000, as well as serving Intervarsity Christian Fellowship since 1981 as a regional coordinator, team leader (Amherst College, since 1991), area director (in Western New England, 1985–91), and campus staff (Colby College, University of Maine, and Eastern Maine Vo Tech Institute (1981–85).

  • ATS Christian Hospitality and Pastoral Practices in a Multifaith Society
    PRACTICING GOD’S SHALOM AND CHRIST’S PEACE IN PASTORAL MINISTRY Bethany Theological Seminary Russell Haitch Summary Seven faculty members met, along with three Jewish and Muslim scholars who joined us via Skype, for consultation on how to educate students for pastoral ministry in multifaith settings. We had thirteen hours of face to face meetings and multiple email discussions. Two educational foci were the practice of prayer in hospital settings and the practice of receiving and extending hospitality during academic courses that take place in cross-cultural settings. Our theological focus was practicing “God’s shalom and Christ’s peace,” concepts that figure prominently in Bethany’s Anabaptist heritage and current mission statement. One distinctive feature of this consultation was the amount of time spent reading about, arguing over, and experimenting with “scriptural reasoning” (or SR), a term that refers to the activity of the Scriptural Reasoning Society, started in 1994. The practice of SR brings together Jewish, Christian, and Muslim participants for the purpose of reading sacred texts; participants “offer each other hospitality” to read one another’s sacred texts as they would their own.1 As a result of this ATS-funded project, six of the seven faculty participants decided to alter their teaching by revising course syllabi and by integrating new insights into Bethany’s ongoing curricular review. Introduction Bethany is the one seminary for the Church of the Brethren, an Anabaptist and Pietist denomination started in Germany in 1708. Though fairly small, largely rural and somewhat tribal, the Brethren have a history of serving in international and multifaith settings.
