Directed by Edward J. Blum, San Diego State University, this academic summer seminar addresses a fundamental dilemma of Christianity: how to represent God's Son.

This dilemma is particularly important in the twenty-first century. Issues of race, gender, and sexuality animate debates in church, state, and society. Considerations of bodies and body images dominate personal lives. And new technologies allow for the creation and distribution of images as never before. How we "see" Jesus Christ plays a vital role in how we see ourselves, our communities, our churches, our nations, and our societies.

The deadline for application was February 15, 2016.

Hosted by Seminars at Calvin with faculty host James Bratt, Calvin History department.

Sponsored by the Calvin Institute of Christian Worship with funding by Lilly Endowment, Inc.
