In 1938, C.S. Lewis addressed Oxford University and argued that though a world war loomed ahead, we must still pursue learning. War only aggravates the human predicament. Taking Lewis's lead, Dane Bundy and the Providence Academy faculty continue discussing the great ideas in theology, literature, and culture for a people on the frontline.
