The heart of research and teaching on faith and reason
We pursue the theological task in keeping with the classical conception of the discipline as “faith seeking understanding” and by bringing together “things new and old” (Matthew 13:52) in order to apply the riches of the Christian tradition to contemporary questions and concerns.
