January 2026 Intensive – Week One – January 5-9, 2026
The Reformation as Renewal – The Reformation has often been caricatured as something novel, a departure from the Great Tradition. But if the reformers are allowed to speak for themselves a different story surfaces: they believed they were retrieving the one holy catholic and apostolic church. This class will excavate that history, exploring the many ways the reformers depended upon the church fathers and the best of the medieval scholastics, all the while rejecting innovations in the late Middle Ages. This course will give special attention to the English Reformation by reading primary sources of the English reformers to understand their significance for renewal in the Anglican church today.
