ABSTRACT
This chapter discusses that studying Christian theology helps engender growth in intellectual virtue and, as such, aids the pursuit of deeper knowledge and truth by enhancing the kind of critical thinking and reasoning needed to attain deeper knowledge and truth. It presents some of the main kinds of reasoning that theologians not only can and do but also should engage in within the realms of both natural and revealed theology. The chapter describes that any university committed to promoting truly liberal learning should care about not just filling people's minds with knowledge and truth but also forming their minds, so that they are both able and willing to attain knowledge and truth, particularly of the deepest sort. Either the secular university can deny that Christian theological study is able to generate wisdom or it can admit that such study has the potential to generate wisdom, even theological wisdom.
