Religious Education (Roman Catholic) 35
In Search of the Good In Search of the Good challenges students to understand themselves as moral persons called to discipleship by living the way of Christ. Through an examination of ethical theories, the revelation of Sacred Scripture, and the lived experience and teaching of the Catholic Church, the course invites students to mature as active participants in their faith. At the heart of catechesis is the human search for happiness as the completion of the superabundant love of God. The same tension which exists between the revelation of God’s love and the explorations of human reason are worked out in the areas of freedom, justice, human relations, ecology, reconciliation, life in community and political life.

Learner Outcomes
Religious Education (Roman Catholic) 35
In RE 35, students will explore their creativity in the ways they choose to communicate what they have learned and their response to the call to discipleship. They will explore ethical and moral guides for living and learn that the major life decisions of a disciple of Christ must flow from a living relationship of love with the Lord and the wisdom acquired through that relationship. As true disciples, students strive to live in the world conscious that their choices should be rooted in their relationship with Christ and fidelity to his call. They focus on making moral and ethical decisions based on Truth.
