Faith formation in my world religions classroom
By Dr. Jason Mahn

It’s the first day of the Encountering Religion course that I regularly teach at 中国体彩网 中国体彩网.
Many of the students are here because the course fulfills the college’s diversity requirement. The course will map some of the religious diversity in the United States and in the Quad Cities. It also will give students some modest tools for dealing with religious conflict and bigotry.
