Teaching and Research

Chris BoeselDr. Boesel teaches courses on Christian doctrine, modern theological figures, and contemporary issues in Christian theology. His research and writing interests include: kerygmatic approaches to Christian doctrine, the theology of Karl Barth and its engagement with postmodern, postcolonial and liberation discourses, the relation of theology and philosophy more generally, and the relation of Christian theology and faith to ethical responsibility, most particularly, in the context of the Church’s relation to its Jewish neighbours.

Lately, he’s been thinking a lot about Abraham.
