S1E5: Knowing God (feat. Augustine of Hippo & Gregory of Nyssa)

from Dead Theologians Podcast · host Matthew Jones

What does it really mean to know God?In this episode, we bring together Augustine of Hippo, one of the Church’s greatest theological minds, and Gregory of Nyssa, a mystical voice from the early church, for a fascinating dialogue on faith, intellect, and the mystery of God’s presence. Augustine wrestles with understanding God through reason and reflection, while Gregory calls us into the depths of divine encounter beyond words.This conversation explores how belief shapes behavior and why our view of God impacts everything about the Christian life. Drawing on timeless questions about knowledge, worship, and transformation, we discover that the tension between head and heart isn’t new—and it still matters for believers today.
