Contact: John Furey, Joe Kuffner
Visiting professor from Australia to speak as part of the Theology Thursday series Thursday, Oct. 4
Morrison, who is visiting the University from the University of Notre Dame Australia, Fremantle, will explore how St. Paul’s encounter with the Risen Christ functions as a path to ministry formation. By investigating Paul’s display of melancholy, vigilance, and spontaneity, he will suggest that Christ demands super-obedience and super-individuation for a person to learn the super-craft of love.
