In the spirit of faith seeking understanding, they read a classical text out loud and participate in Socratic dialogue, all with the aim of contemplating the deep things of God and enjoying communion with him. Dr. Barrett is passionate about the retrieval of classical theology and loves nothing more than seeing his students embrace and embody its spirit of faith seeking understanding (fides quaerens intellectum). He is a theologian with a pastor’s heart, always eager to demonstrate how doctrine leads to discipleship and doxology.
