Through the Church Fathers: Febuary 2

from Through the Church Fathers

Podcast Description – February 2In today’s readings, we explore profound theological themes from The Epistle of Barnabas, Augustine’s Confessions, and Aquinas’ Summa Theologica. Barnabas presents Christ as the fulfillment of Old Testament typology, showing how the sacrifice of the red heifer prefigures Christ’s atoning work. Augustine continues his reflections on his youthful sins, delving into the motivations behind theft and the twisted nature of desiring evil for its own sake. Finally, Aquinas addresses whether we can name God, explaining how human language can describe God, even though no name fully captures His infinite essence.Join us as we uncover how these foundational texts shape our understanding of Christ, sin, and the divine mystery of God’s nature.Explore the Project:https://www.throughthechurchfathers.com – The official site for our year-long journey through the Church Fathers. https://www.patreon.com/cmichaelpatton – Join us on Patreon to help sustain this ministry and gain exclusive access to additional resources. https://www.credocourses.com – Explore a library of theological courses designed to strengthen your faith and understanding. https://www.credoministries.org – Partner with Credo House Ministries through prayer and financial support.
