Education

In recent years I have built up a lot of experience in educating the new generation of theological professionals: church workers (priests, deacons, pastoral workers), chaplains in the world of health care, military and prison life, and teachers of religious education in secondary education.

In how I teach, I include my own practical experiences and work field contacts. The way I teach is impassioned. I challenge students to look for the meaning of old and new traditions for their vision and practice. I help them open up to what is unruly and abrasive: in life and in religion.
