Religion is a communal
effort to relate to God, with profound implications for how we relate
to one another and to the rest of creation.

God is beyond anything
our finite minds can completely comprehend. But Christianity tells us
that this infinite God has revealed himself to us. This revelation is
the basis of our work, as our faith seeks understanding.

Questions of origins,
meaning, and value are not going away. Religious study, once thought
to be a vestige of a superstitious past, is increasingly relevant to
postmodern culture.
