Through a Glass Darkly is part of the Augustine Collective, a student-driven network of Christian journals in universities. We are also the first member journal to be based in the UK.
Launched in 2010, the Augustine Collective is now run as a program of The Veritas Forum, an international non-profit devoted to elevating thoughtful Christian perspectives and promoting dialogue on campus and in society. The journals seek to reinvigorate thoughtful conversations about faith on campus by publishing student essays, reviews, art, and poetry inspired by the conviction that the Christian Gospel encompasses the whole of life itself.
We, the member journals of the Augustine Collective, have come together because we believe the Christian Gospel encompasses the whole of life itself; that the brokenness of this world is mirrored in the brokenness of God on the cross; and that the answer to our brokenness is found only in the Resurrection. For us, this means that all things hold together in Christ: art, history, music, philosophy, mathematics, literature, poetry, medicine, law, justice, science. The modern university was founded to pursue these things: Light and Truth.
The Augustine Collective exists to revive Christian thought, dialogue, and imagination in the modern university. We envision a space on campus where students and faculty gather to pursue faith and learning together. To facilitate this dialogue we support journals that bring the intellectual riches of the Christian tradition into conversation with the diverse areas of study and narratives of the modern academy. Our vision is to see journals of Christian thought flourish on campuses around the world as hubs of integrated thought and life.
