How should we define theology? From the High Middle Ages through the 17th and into the 18th century, theology was almost universally considered “the queen of the sciences.” Immediately one might be surprised to see theology categorized as a science.

Surely something innately religious cannot be placed alongside fields of study where experiments and measurements rule the day, can it? After all, isn’t theology simply based on faith? In this article we will explore what theology is, why it should still be considered the pinnacle of all science, and how a deeper understanding of God will draw us closer to Him.
