Theology

Theology is a science. To study any science, one must know the principles of the science, and one must have strong encounters with the subject matter of the science. Before one can do theology, one must study the catechism -- the basic principles of theology -- and the Sacred Scriptures, which, along with Sacred tradition, provide the subject matter.

Our Theology track starts with a catechetical semester, and then focuses on a deep dive into the Scriptures, looking at how the Fathers read Scripture, and reading Scripture in the light of the Church. In the last year and a half, we move beyond the Scriptures, focusing on the spiritual writings of the saints, and then move to a practice of theology as a science, looking to the Church fathers and doctors and their enemies to see how theology can be done well or poorly.

If the Son of God had to descend from the bosom of His Father to initiate us into this teaching, could we expect anything else than the revelation of the deepest mysteries locked up in God’s heart?
