Fostering faith and learning across a growing nation
This historical discourse explores how colleges and theological schools shaped American religion and society, from early Puritan aims to today’s expanding West. It explains why education was seen as a key to missionary and civic work, and how religious aims guided the creation of enduring institutions.
In clear, accessible language, the speaker traces the origins of colleges as religious institutions, the rise of theological seminaries, and the practical needs that led to new Western colleges. It shows how these schools were intended to supply educated ministers, support civil life, and energize missionary efforts across the country.
