Returning to the Classroom (#1604)

2016/01/09 By Greg

WR2016 is well underway.

In just a few more days I will return to the virtual university classroom.  This semester I will be teaching three completely full sections of Introduction to World Religions at Hodges University (my 16th, 17th, and 18th times to teach a course on world religions since accepting this adjunct role in 2011).

 

So What?

Most regular readers of my blog are religiously literate about their own religion.  I wonder, however, how religiously literate you are when it comes to religions beyond your own.

While I cannot open up my virtual classroom to you, I am open to blogging about religions other than Christianity in the year ahead with greater frequency than in past years.  Feel free to ask me questions and/or suggest topics.

I invite you to take 5 minutes to compare your knowledge to the average American by taking a short quiz.  Whether or not you take the quiz, I suggest that you consider joining me in committing (perhaps even resolving) to take specific steps to increase your religious literacy in 2016.
