| THEO 211C - Finding Religion in Prison |
|
This Inside-Out course explores the Christian identification of its founder, Jesus Christ, with those who are incarcerated and executed. The symbol of the Christian faith is the common Roman devise for the death penalty, and over the centuries Christian prison literature has become among the richest sources of inspiration for Christian believers. From St. Paul to Martin Luther King, students will examine samples of this prison literature in order to understand better why Christians seek to find their savior in the most unlikely of places: prisons and jails.
