Relational

As Christians, we are created to be in three important relationships: (i) with God, (ii) with people, and (iii) with creation. In this study, we investigated how pedagogy related to Christian practices of relationality impacted university students' prosocial tendencies. We exercised Christian practices of gratitude and intercessory prayer, together with pedagogical interventions, including class discussions, self-evaluation surveys, and reflection papers. Intervention classes were compared to control classes. Students who participated in Christian practices reported positive changes in prosocial tendencies. This study illustrates how Christian practices of gratitude and intercessory prayer can be used to honor God and promote relationality through greater prosocial tendencies in Christian university students
