Uniquely among Canadian theological colleges, Emmanuel and St. Chad’s theology degree program is founded on a college Great Books Seminar. One of our students, Nancy Yee, had this to say about her experience:

In first term, we spent many hours studying English/Anglican works spanning the 17th and 20th centuries. Each of us developed preferences for either the dark beauty of John Donne’s poetry, the more intellectual sermons by Evelyn Underhill, or the captivating writing style of  Susan Howatch.

This term’s seminar had its own flavour. We struggled with analyzing Tertullian, Aquinas, Luther and Rowan Williams; but under the guidance of supportive faculty, we successfully navigated an intellectual journey like no other. People began to share more, write better papers and form an intellectual community.

I think the Great Books Seminar makes our experience of learning deeper. God is always faithful to gather the willing and the hungry, to be touched and fed in unfathomable ways.
