The study of theology is the cornerstone of all
intellectual endeavors because the truths that theology
considers are the highest - and at the same time the
deepest - truths about God and man.

No matter what your future service to the
Church or to the world, studies in theology provide
the key dimension for fruitful and authentic
evangelization.
