Fall Semester 2026

 

Course: Christian Life & Spirituality
Professor: Theodosis Karvounakis

In this course, we will explore Christian life and spirituality as a journey of character transformation into the image of Christ. Special emphasis will be placed on the relationship between theology and practical life, biblical teaching on character and virtue, the role of the Holy Spirit in the process of sanctification, as well as the cultivation of habits and spiritual practices that foster Christian maturity. Additionally, we will examine the significance of the Christian community, relationships, and discipleship as essential frameworks for shaping a mature Christian character.

The primary goal of the course is to help students understand how theology shapes daily life, evaluate their own discipleship path in light of the Gospel, and cultivate habits and virtues leading to spiritual maturity and faithful living. The course includes personal exercises and select online activities, some of which will be in English. Students who are not fluent in English are encouraged to use online translation tools and communicate with the instructor.

Indicative Learning Activities: Watching recorded lectures, online attendance and active participation in synchronous weekly sessions, personal spiritual assignments and daily exercises (e.g., prayer, scripture reading, study, planning, accountability) emphasizing consistency and mindfulness in daily life, connecting theological thought with practice, developing spiritual discernment and self-awareness, required readings, written reflections, and journal keeping.

Final Course Requirements: Evaluation is based on weekly assignments; no final paper or final exam will be required.

 

Course: Epistle to the Romans
Professor: Stefanos Mihalios

In this course, we will study Paul’s Epistle to the Romans in greater detail through an exegetical approach. Key emphasis will be placed on significant doctrinal topics central to Reformed theology, such as human sinfulness, justification by faith, the assurance of salvation, dealing with sin as a believer, the limitations of the Law and God’s commandments, election, and Israel’s place in redemptive history. Additionally, practical matters will be addressed, including spiritual gifts, the Christian’s relationship to governing authorities, and various topics in Christian ethics.

The primary aim of the course is to assist students in understanding the structure and argument of the epistle, engaging with its exegetical and theological themes, and considering practical ways to apply these concepts in life.

Indicative Learning Activities: Watching video lectures, participating in weekly online sessions, reading and commenting on texts/perspectives, quizzes, etc.

Final Course Requirements: Students may choose between writing a research paper or completing two written assignments/reflections. Further details will be provided by the instructor at the beginning of the term.
