A History of Christian Theology

In this long episode, Tom, Trevor, and Chad discuss probably the most famous book from the early Christian church outside the New Testament. It is a welcome departure from the minutiae of Trinitarian theology. It is a prayer. It is a story. Most of all, it is brilliant. Let us know what you think of the longer episode and whether you would prefer us break it up. http://www.facebook.com/ahistoryofchristiantheology

This week only Tom and Chad could get together for the conversation on the letter to Ablabius from Gregory of Nyssa. It is our last podcast for some time which will be devoted to the Trinity. Starting next week, we will begin with the Confessions.

Tom, Trevor, and Chad discuss the Trinity in Scripture as well as Gregory of Nyssa's Life of Moses. Thank you for listening and if you have a moment give us a rating or review on iTunes. It will really help us and other people find this podcast!

The podcast is back! Tom, Trevor, and Chad have begun recording new episodes. On this particular episode, we discuss Gregory of Nyssa's, "Life of Moses." This episode was recorded in October of 2016, but has only recently been edited. We will begin releasing brand new episodes some time later next month. We hope you enjoy this in depth discussion of Gregory of Nyssa.

In this episode, Chad, Tom and Trevor respond to several questions posted on our Facebook page and then move into discussing the theology of Gregory Nazianzen. Sorry for the delay in updating our podcast, but we are back with more content!

In our last episode from the vault, we discuss On the Holy Spirit. We will be recording new episodes starting tomorrow when we will respond to some of the comments on the Facebook page. We appreciate all of our listeners and feedback. If you would like to leave some feedback, please do so on www.facebook.com/ahistoryofchristiantheology

This week we finish our study of Athanasius and look at this theology of the Trinity as articulated against the Arians heretics. Please check out our Facebook page at Facebook.com/ahistoryofchristiantheology.

In this short episode, we respond to two questions from our listeners. Please write in any comments you have on our Facebook page at Facebook.com/ahistoryofchristiantheology.

We spend a good deal of time this week look at Athansius unique view of the atonement which is known as deification or theosis. In the episode, we compare his views to those of the John Calvin, Martin Luther and Anselm of Cantebury, who have all made significant contributions to the idea of justification, which most of our audience will be familiar with. Although the view of deification is not unheard of in the West, it is primarily known as the view of the Eastern Orthodox Church. Please stick around for this great discussion. Also, it would really help us out if you would rate us and review us on iTunes. Just search for A History of Christian Theology, pull up our podcast and give us a quick click for how you like the podcast. Also, we’ve had questions slowly trickling in and will continue to air our responses to those questions. Now on to Athanasius.

Tom, Trevor and Chad ended up discussing our first question from a listener for nearly 20 minutes. So, we decided to upload it as a single podcast episode. We will be responding to the next two questions when we record this week. They should be up some time next week, probably with the next podcast. Thanks for listening.
