Defining Patristics and Its Limits

Dr. J. Warren Smith is Professor of Historical Theology at Duke Divinity School. Professor Smith is a great guide in helping us to see hope for the future in listening to voices of hope from the past.

We talk with him about how some sayings, perspectives, and experiences of those who lived many centuries ago can be resonant in the midst of the challenges of our time.

Besides being compelling and interesting, and at times upsetting, encountering theology in history can be a lot of fun.

Enjoy.
