Description
Résumé:This article will attempt to capture the formational experience of learning the integration of psychology and theology in the pedagogical space: from fragments to communion. Learning integration can be a disorienting and destabilizing experience for student and professor alike, often leaving students feeling upset or angry and asking "What is the point?" This is because learning integration, a form of theological education, is not simply the acquisition of new knowledge, but a kind of affective identity formation work. For this reason, Willie James Jennings and his book After Whiteness: An Education in Belonging (2020) will serve as the primary interlocutor for this paper. Like Jennings, this paper will suggest that learning integration is a process of formation—standing in the spaces of the multiple fragments we inhabit in order to move toward what Jennings describes as communion.
