“We try to teach academic courses in ways that are eminently pastoral and applicable. Our practical courses are very academic. We try to teach them both in ways that nurture people's own spiritual growth. The academic, the pastoral, and the spiritual – letting all three suffuse each other and inform and color each other. We don't see these as a triangle. We see them as integrated. ”

Faculty Collaboration
Two book projects, Hope: Promise, Possibility, and Fulfillment and The Holy Spirit: Setting the World on Fire are notable examples of how CSTM faculty members collaborate and support one another academically. For these projects, the faculty selected a central theme, and then each contributor explored the issue from her or his theological area of expertise.
Unparalleled Access to Expertise
Students also form relationships with stellar faculty in the Morrissey College of Arts and Sciences Theology Department, whose primary research areas include biblical studies, historical theology/history of Christianity, comparative theology, systematic theology, and theological ethics.
