Church Fathers (65)
  1. Ted Just Admit It! He’s Always Been The Lamb. In this episode, we discuss Irenaeus’ Proof of Apostolic Preaching and what he has to say to those who make a show of faith but deny the incarnation of the Son according to the witness of Scripture.
  2. Today on the show, we remember another of the “Big A’s,” St. Ambrose of Milan.
  3. Today on the show, we commemorate St. Andrew on his feast day.
  4. For with God we look not for the order of nature, but rest our faith in the power of him who works.
  5. God Has No Skin in The Game? In this episode, we discuss Tertullian’s argument against Marcion about God’s being born flesh and blood in his treatise, On The Flesh of Christ. What’s at stake when well-meaning Christians disembody God and, consequently, Christians?
  6. The Stuff That Heresies Are Made Of. In this episode, we discuss Ireneaus’ attack on the Marcionite and Gnostic heresies, which sought to divide Christ’s two natures, and the ramifications of this teaching for the churches today.
  7. Blind Faith Is Worthless Unless It’s Blind Faith in Us. In this episode, we discuss Augustine’s Confessions, specifically Augustine’s reflection on the Manichaeans and the effect God’s Word had on his conversion to Christianity.
  8. Good, we tend to think, is the absence of evil. But this reversal of the formula can only have disastrous consequences.
  9. Gregory is a bridge between the patristic age and the medieval.
  10. Cyril’s fervor for pure explication of the gospel was present throughout his career.
  11. We cannot overstate that no person outside the Bible has been as influential to Christian theology as Augustine.
  12. Origen is wrong about stuff, but he had the foresight to say that if he was wrong, he was open to correction.
