This course provides an introduction to Latino theology and spirituality. It considers the historical context for the development of Latino theology in the United States, its contemporary sources and theological methods, and its implications for pastoral ministry. Drawing on a variety of ecumenical perspectives, it considers key issues and themes in Latino theology, such as lo cotidiano (the everyday lived experience), mestizaje (the mixing of cultures), and acompañamiento (accompaniment). Readings include texts from liberation theology, mujerista theology, and the work of several contemporary Roman Catholic and Protestant theologians. Spanish is helpful but not required.
