Creation and Covenant | E8: The Value of Creation and the Meaning of life

In this episode, Dr John Moffatt SJ’s discussion on Christian Creation Theology examines various perspectives on life’s meaning, justice, and environmental responsibility, contrasting secular worldviews like Epicureanism and Marxism with Christian teachings. He highlights that creation is inherently good and that both the Old and New Testaments advocate justice and care for the marginalised.Drawing on thinkers like Thomas Aquinas and Pope Francis, Dr John Moffatt underscores the concept of the "Universal Destination of Goods," arguing for a shared stewardship of Earth’s resources.-📧 ⁠⁠⁠Sign up for regular updates⁠⁠⁠⁠, including follow-up study days!📚 ⁠⁠⁠⁠Explore the wide range of reading materials⁠⁠⁠⁠ in the Heythrop Library🤓 ⁠⁠⁠Join online or in-person courses⁠⁠⁠⁠ at the London Jesuit CentreIf you find our podcasts helpful, please consider ⁠⁠⁠⁠donating to the London Jesuit Centre⁠⁠⁠⁠.
