DN 960 THE LORD’S SUPPER IN REFORMED FAITH AND WORSHIP
February 20-24, 2012

In this systematic study of the celebration of the sacrament of the Lord’s Supper down through the centuries, special attention is given to its Biblical roots, as well as to the way the sacrament was observed in the ancient Church and the evolution of the liturgy through the days of the Byzantine Empire. Consideration is given to the Protestant Reformation and to the eucharistic theology of Luther, Zwingli, and Calvin. In addition to a study of the development of a covenantal theology of the sacrament, the deep devotional insights of the 17th and 18th centuries and a number of communion prayers and hymns are studied.

Elective. Three hours.
 
DC 902 WORSHIP OF THE ANCIENT CHURCH
March 26 -30, 2012

This course examines the New Testament and a number of early Christian documents such as the Didaché, the worship reported by Justin Martyr, the Odes of Solomon, and the prayer of the Church of Antioch in the Fourth Century. The sermons of John Chrysostom and Augustine and the hymns of Ambrose of Milan and Ephrem of Syria receive special attention.

Elective. Three hours.
