Abstract:
This research proposes an analysis of the theological courses of the Refidim College and its relation with the Spirit Theology. The investigation intends to mediate from the historical, social and theological context of the theology courses, as well as to understand the relation and development of the Spirit Theology in the history of these courses. It is intended to find a point of relation with the Spirit theology so that all the academic theological knowledge and the experiential knowledge could be harmonized in the formation of the Pentecostal student. The research intends to investigate the links between the Spirit Theology and the courses of theology and to reflect about association between learning from academic knowledge and also from experience, making possible for the student a re-signification of the concept of theology and practical method of doing theology inside and outside of the Pentecostal academic environment. In the first chapter it is presented the historical context of theology in the ADs of Brazil and at Refidim College in Joinville SC. In the second chapter, a revival of the philosophical understanding of the theory of empirical knowledge and also of the theological understanding of the ADs on the Pneumatological doctrine. In the last chapter it is proposed an investigation of the Spirit Theology in the academic area and about the challenges to the elaboration of an academic-experiential curriculum that allows the formation of Pentecostal theologians. This is a bibliographical research that intends to investigate the academic-rational space of the theology course and the practical-experiential reality of the Pentecostal student in order to find points of contact between both and ends up proposing the construction of an academic-experiential curriculum that contributes positively to the formation of this student.
