Monsignor Liddy describes the seminar as follows:

Engaging in academic research, reading, writing and teaching presupposes the meaningfulness of what we are doing, the search for truth and value. Such raises the question of the ground of all this, its meaning and goodness – ultimately, the question of God. Hence, religious universities and their mission to integrate the disciplines and relate them to ultimate questions.
