How the strict and Godly Puritan religion coexisted with secular thought in 18th century Massachusetts is the central problem this paper addresses. To make sense of this unexpected collision requires an examination of two facets of life in Massachusetts: the colony's ministers and the colony's system for educating them. An evaluation of these two facets reveals significant interplay between Puritanism and Enlightenment thought in 18th century Massachusetts. Furthermore, this interplay indicates that the Enlightenment had a role in Massachusetts beyond and quite different from simply supplying the influx of political thought which infiltrated all of the American colonies and contributed to the colonists' revolutionary movement for independence. Indeed, Puritan values and the Enlightenment not only coexisted but often converged, creating a minister's Enlightenment in 18th century Massachusetts.
