ITALY FROM THE EARLY CHURCH TO THE RENAISSANCE

A Regent College Travel Course, open for all to participate

Come join us on a once-in-a-lifetime tour of Italy from Rome to Florence that is at the same time a journey through the centuries from the persecuted early church to the high civilization of the Renaissance with its synthesis of Christian and classical ideals.

We will see the major sites (the Colosseum, the Forum, the Vatican, the Uffizi, the Academia, and so on) but we will also reflect on the story of Christianity and culture as we go, guided by Regent professors Bruce and Carolyn Hindmarsh and hosted by Bronwyn Spilsbury.

We will experience this too as an exercise of devotion and the “communion of the saints” as we enter into the journey as Christian pilgrims together. Each day begins with a brief meditation on Scripture and an appropriate text for the day related to what we are seeing.

In addition to three informative lectures, there will be “mini-lectures” on the bus and on location to help you get the most out of the experience. We will also take advantage of local guides and their unique expertise all the way along. There is an accompanying syllabus for those wishing to take this as a course for credit, which we encourage for maximum benefit.

ALL are welcome to participate in this journey, whether registered as a Regent College student or not.
