Clearer understanding of the:
- Relation between human being and language.
- Relation of ultimate meaning to human being.
- Meanings fundamental to human living.
Task
Understanding the essential meaning of the human person is a project that is defined by its incompleteness and requires deliberate effort to enable progress. The ability of the thinking embodied in scripture to contribute value is significant. The Bible is a register of meanings and motivations endemic to human living. Its basic key words — including “faith,” “hope,” “righteousness,” “sin,” “wrath,” “life,” and “death” — are pertinent across all human domains including contemporary ones. They speak to the primordial impulse of human being to achieve itself against its search for ultimate meaning and the tragedies inherent to everyday life.
Response
The workshop exhibits the essential meaning of the “faith,” “love,” and “hope” spoken in the Old Testament (OT) and New Testament (NT). Care for the original Hebrew and Greek is exercised. Kittel’s Theologisches Wörterbuch Zum Neuen Testament (Theological Dictionary of the New Testament) and A Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament and Other Early Christian Literature (BDAG) are used for baseline readings of key words. Phenomenological (experiential) and existential-psychotherapeutic perspectives are employed to enhance interpretability. The workshop begins with an examination of the place of ultimate meaning in human living.
Delivery
Best teaching practices are employed. They include discovery sessions, learning exercises, knowledge checks, and the exposition of fundamental processes.
Cognition. Meaning. Intelligence. The way we understand, think, and say. Our perspectives, narratives, and comprehension of things. Our choices and decisions. Togetherness. These phenomena are not disconnected from organizations. They are not detached from business, technology, or production. They are information processes and belong to the physics of the system. Sigetic amplifies the power to see, seize, and steer the operations to strengthen organizational reliability and performance.
