Online Self-Paced Course

Smartphones and social media have caused a cultural hurricane that is changing our nervous system, relationships, and spirituality.  This cultural hurricane has left our nervous system rushed, distracted, and anxious, hampering our ability to connect with God and one another.

Using brain science and Catholic spiritual practices, Dr. Tim Hogan will show us how to renew our spiritual vitality and relearn how to allow God’s love to skillfully flow through our busy everyday lives. Whether you are a parish minister or simply interested in deepening your faith, this self-paced online Equip course will allow you to confront the digital age and deepen your relationships with God and others.

How is this course structured?

This non-credit course—brought to you by Sacred Heart Major Seminary's Institute for Lay Ministry—is being offered online using the seminary's learning management system, Canvas. Upon signing up for the course, students will receive a username and password for accessing the online class.

The class will be conducted online giving students the freedom to engage with the material and complete course tasks around their own schedule. The class will consist of five modules which can be completed according to the individual's own pace.

Each module will be hosted by Dr. Tim Hogan, Psy.D, Part-time professor at Sacred Heart Major Seminary.

Each module will include:

- Lecture Video (~20 minutes)
- Lectio Divina Exercise (~10 minutes)
- Personal Assessment Quiz (~5 minutes)
- Supplemental Reading Material

The goal of the course is not to deliver a high level of rigor or stress, but instead engage Catholics who want to learn more about their faith.

Consider this a retreat experience, done at your own pace.  This is an opportunity to grow deeper in your relationship with the Lord and with others.
