The Theology Mill

Johannes Steenbuch / Negative Theology, Pt. 1

Dec 5, 2024
Johannes Aakjær Steenbuch, a philosophy PhD from the University of Copenhagen and author of "Negative Theology: A Short Introduction," explores intriguing theological concepts. He discusses the evolution of negative theology from early church fathers to modern thinkers like Kierkegaard. The conversation highlights how negative theology articulates God through what He is not, analyzes the divine nature’s incomprehensibility, and examines how concepts of nothingness in Meister Eckhart's thought relate to spiritual connection. This deep dive navigates complex ideas in theological history.
