Briefly noted
WATERLOO, ONT.- Jeremy M. Bergen has been appointed assistant professor of religious studies and theology at Conrad Grebel University College. He will complete his Ph.D. dissertation entitled "The Emerging Practice of Ecclesial Repentance and the Nature and Mission of the Church" at the University of Toronto this spring before beginning to teach at Grebel in September. His research focuses Christian faith communities that have expressed repentance for past actions, and how this practice shapes a church's self-understanding and promotes reconciliation. Bergen has taught an introductory theology course at the University of Waterloo in 2005 and served as the interim director of the Toronto Mennonite Theological Centre from 2005-07. Bergen was one of the editors of the 2007 book, Creed and Conscience: Essays in Honour of A. James Reimer (Pandora Press), and has published articles in The Conrad Grebel Review and Journal of Ecumenical Studies.
