Sorry for the long delay. We thought we uploaded this episode last month and we totally forgot. In this episode, Trevor and Chad discuss Augustine's exploration of the Neoplatonic doctrine that evil is the privation of the good. https://www.patreon.com/AHOCT

Today we discuss curiosity in book 6. This is an important concept for Augustine as he sees the human person through the lens of desire as much as through pure intellect. Sorry for the delay in uploading this.

Hey everyone, we are back with more from the Confessions. Today, we talk about Augustine's spiritual mentor Ambrose and his mother Monica. We also delve deep into Augustine's view of scripture which I think will be interesting to many. Hope you enjoy it.

We keep plodding along through the first quarter of Augustine's Confessions in this episode. We begin with a joke from one of Chad's favorite theologians, Stanley Hauerwas, and move to discuss the universal appeal of Augustine's more emotional sections. I hope you enjoy the episode!

With Trevor back, the hosts continue on in their discussion of St. Augustine. This conversation includes insights from Stanley Hauerwas, as well as discussions of cultural custom and natural law.

We hope you all are enjoying our deep dive into the Confessions. We move into Augustine's love of Cicero and philosophy in this episode. Please visit http://www.patreon.com/ahoct if you have the means to support our podcast. We appreciate it!

In this long episode, Tom, Trevor, and Chad discuss probably the most famous book from the early Christian church outside the New Testament. It is a welcome departure from the minutiae of Trinitarian theology. It is a prayer. It is a story. Most of all, it is brilliant. Let us know what you think of the longer episode and whether you would prefer us break it up. http://www.facebook.com/ahistoryofchristiantheology

This week only Tom and Chad could get together for the conversation on the letter to Ablabius from Gregory of Nyssa. It is our last podcast for some time which will be devoted to the Trinity. Starting next week, we will begin with the Confessions.

Tom, Trevor, and Chad discuss the Trinity in Scripture as well as Gregory of Nyssa's Life of Moses. Thank you for listening and if you have a moment give us a rating or review on iTunes. It will really help us and other people find this podcast!

The podcast is back! Tom, Trevor, and Chad have begun recording new episodes. On this particular episode, we discuss Gregory of Nyssa's, "Life of Moses." This episode was recorded in October of 2016, but has only recently been edited. We will begin releasing brand new episodes some time later next month. We hope you enjoy this in depth discussion of Gregory of Nyssa.
