Finally, two main missionary challenges of today will be discussed, namely inculturation and interreligious dialogue. Th602: Developing Bible Seminar PM Fr. Loreto Vermundo Miranda, cicm The course reviews the principles and tools for interpreting biblical texts. It then focuses on how the Bible can be taught to and learned by lay people in schools, parishes, communities and workplaces, taking into account their social and cultural contexts.
