Course description:
New Homiletic was a movement in the end of the last century. The roots of this movement went back to the New
Hermeneutic of the 60s. The major emphasis was on the experiancing of the sermon. How can a sermon become
an event for a hearer. This homiletic is often called a hearer-driven homiletic, that assumes a new theology of
preaching. These questions will be discussed in this workshop.

Inhalt und Ziel:
Das Sondergut ist ein wichtiger Bestandteil, eine charakteristische Komponente der einzelnen Evangelien. Es
trägt unter anderem zum besseren Verständnis, zur Unterscheidung der Eigenart und der theologischen
Positionen, zum Hervorheben und Betonen der Intention des Evangelisten und des Evangeliums und insgesamt
nicht zur Relativierung, sondern zur Verstärkung des Kerygmas wesentlich bei. Das lukanische Sondergut, was
sowohl die zusammenhängenden Perikopen als auch die in den anderen Texteinheiten verstreuten Einzelverse
bzw. Einzelformulierungen betrifft, umfasst einen beachtenden Teil, nach einigen Schätzungen ungefähr mehr
als 40 Prozent des Evangeliums.

Course description:
The topic of this course, applied theology is fairly new not only in Hungary, but also internationally as well. The
goal of this course is to practically integrate what you have learned theoretically with a new perspective, and to
be able apply this practically in real life. In this modern world, Christians face many challenges to which applied
theology seeks to provide a complex, critical answer. This course aims to help students find that answer and
prepare them for ministry so that they can effectively make decisions, using previous knowledge and newly
gained skills.
Course Content:
Applied theology is presented as an integral part of Christian faith, from the context of the world, the church,
and the people. Nowadays, the world is permanently changing due to global happenings in which societies,
cultures, politics, economic situations, and the newly important sustainable development all play a role. In this
5
context, it is imperative for the Church to grasp the changing world. This course seeks to help students to
understand global challenges, and to effectively address them through Applied Theology.
Course Specifics
The framework for sustainability. Sustainability: in modern times; in business; in evangelism in the Church and
in Biblical theology. Effectice sustainable living - together with fellow creatures. God’s Oikonomia and human
stewardship. Individual and personal responsibility.
Requirements:
 During this course, active class participation is required, which means that the class environment will be very
informal and welcoming to student input and discussion. Students’ opinion is very important and
appreciated. Class work takes place in this same environment. There will be case studies, role-play, debates,
surveys, and video presentation to make the class more dynamic.
