Lyceum Disputation Symposiums
Essays in the Lyceum Disputation series range from traditional academic symposium essays to mid-range theses on various theological, historical, and philosophical topics intended to provide greater understanding in a spirit that reflects charity, curiosity, critical thinking, and cheerful confessionalism.
