St. Thomas Aquinas' Summa Theologica is a masterpiece of both theology and philosophy. Come join us as we read and discuss the work of one of the greatest philosophers and saints in history.

Each week, we closely read and discuss a short selection from the Summa. Our current focus is on Aquinas' treatment of the soul in the Treatise on Man. Prereading is not required. Newcomers are always welcome.
