Religion

The Religion Department, comprised of Dr. Hoyt Oliver and Dr. David Gowler, offers a range of courses, many of which fulfill General Education humanities requirements at both Oxford College and Emory College. The department also offers special topics courses that emphasize the dialogues between Religion and culture.

The members of the Religion Department believe that the academic study of Religion is an intellectual endeavor first and foremost, but it is one that involves questions about fundamental issues of human existence. This endeavor can and should involve a personal journey, one in which academic study and personal convictions are in continual dialogue.

In the Religion courses at Oxford College, we therefore seek to promote dialogues that develop, challenge, and enhance both one's intellectural beliefs and one's personal convictions.

We invite you to join us on that journey and dialogue.
