Center for Catholic Thought

The Center for Catholic Thought at Creighton University was created in 2009. The Center serves students, faculty, and the local Catholic community through a series of programs designed to explore and promote the Church’s intellectual tradition.

The Catholic Church has a long history of engaging the intersection of faith and reason. Catholicism, to mention one example, sees no conflict between the conclusions of science and the proclamation of the Gospel. Catholic Universities are especially well positioned to become intentional centers of excellence where the Catholic intellectual tradition is able to prosper and thrive.

The Center currently sponsors the podcast “Catholic Comments” and the annual Michael G. Lawler lecture series. Additional programming will be implemented in the next few years.
