Through the Church Fathers

Through the Church Fathers: January 29


Listen Later

In today’s episode, we explore three profound works that reveal the depth of early Christian theology and philosophy. First, we continue our journey through the Epistle of Barnabas, reflecting on the significance of the new covenant established through Christ's suffering and resurrection and its implications for both salvation and judgment. Next, we turn to Augustine’s Confessions, where he candidly recounts the struggles of his youth and the pull of earthly desires, offering timeless lessons on sin, grace, and the pursuit of God’s love. Finally, we engage with Aquinas’s Summa Theologica to unpack the concept of God’s infinite and self-sufficient nature, including His role as the ultimate Unmoved Mover. Together, these works provide a rich tapestry of theological insight, connecting Scripture, philosophy, and the lived Christian experience.
