Description:

New for 22-23!

This course offers students a unique opportunity to compare Christian and humanistic perspectives of the field of sociology (the scientific study of society), and to consider major topics through the lens of a Biblical Worldview. Students will examine how society shapes human actions and beliefs, and how human actions and beliefs in turn shape society. Major topics include marriage and family, religion and education, the economy and politics, sports and entertainment, population and the environment, cities and urban life, collective behavior and social movements, and social change.
