Mathematics and faith may seem worlds apart, yet math education reveals eternal truths that point beyond the material world. In this episode of the Just Steward Podcast, Michael Frigon and Doug Connolly are joined by Jake Tawney, Chief Academic Officer at Great Hearts and author of Another Sort of Mathematics, to explore how mathematics reflects truth, goodness, and beauty. Jake explains how math serves as a bridge between the spiritual and physical realms, why classical education treats mathematics as more than utility, and where modern math education succeeds and fails. This conversation reframes math not as rote calculation but as a formative discipline that shapes reason, wonder, and the soul itself.
