Theology and Religion
We cover a lot of topics regarding theology and Catholic religion. Below is a list of terms/concepts and resources so that parents and students can have fruitful conversations at home!
*This is an ongoing list.
Saints:
Thinking: Having a conversation with yourself, asking yourself questions and finding the answer.
Prayer: Turning your heart towards God. This can happen in a variety of ways, but that intentional disposition directed at God is foundational.
Lectio Divina: We simplify this to understanding that God is trying to speak to us through Sacred Scripture, so we look for one word/phrase that “speaks to our hearts” and pray about it.
Love: Willing the Good of the other, as other.
Truth: What is.
Faith: What is believed in — i.e. Faith in Jesus.
Hope: Believing you can get there
