adult development and spirituality, this course considers the assessment of personality and personality disorders, sexual issues including abuse, the addictions along with dual diagnosis and co-dependency, issues around adoption and divorce, the experience of trauma, loss, and depression, ministry to those with AIDS, dying and bereavement, suicide, and burnout in ministry. John Shea, OSA TH 994 Education and Ministry for Justice (Spring: 3) How do we educate and minister among youth for the sake of peace and justice? How do we cultivate capacities among them for sustained commitments to the common good? This course has two broad aims: first, we will investigate the theological and social psychological foundations for sustained commitment. Second, we will explore the dynamics of power and its abuses, as they define where we are called to respond in the world. In doing so, we will imagine pedagogical and ministerial strategies for cultivating the faith lives and commitments of youth and young adults in response to these abuses.
