He taught courses in Latin and Greek languages and literatures, and also general studies courses that explored topics in biblical literature, history of Christian thought, history of science, classical mythology, and contemporary fiction. His senior seminar at Berea College, "Science and Faith," allowed him to combine life-long interests in science and in religious thought.
