Drawing on the Old Testament, the New Testament, and the Writings of Emanuel Swedenborg, college faculty members of Bryn Athyn College of the New Church show how trust and confidence in divine revelation enlivens and deepens the study of the liberal arts. With articles on fields as diverse as philosophy and physics, composition and chemistry, art history and geomorphology, the reader experiences the breadth of learning available to a student at the college and the range of subjects touched by the new Christian faith. Faith and Learning at Bryn Athyn College shows how the new Christian theology changes our perspective on academic endeavors. At the same time, the spiritual aspect of the pursuit of truth knits the essays together as each professor writes about the ways that his or her specialty can both serve and reflect the Divine. Faith and reason can work together harmoniously, drawing on insights from both Athens and Jerusalem
