Description

Series: Mystical Theology
Episode 20: Augustine of Hippo: An Orthodox Perspective, Part 1, Introduction, Episode 20 in Mystical Theology, with Prof. C. Veniamin

In Part 1 of “Augustine of Hippo: An Orthodox Perspective”, Episode 20 of our series in “Mystical Theology”, we present the theology of the most influential Christian figure in Western thought. Our introduction begins by making reference to Augustine’s seminal work on the Trinity, and setting the context of his approach to the mystery by identifying his two sources of divine revelation: faith (Holy Scripture) and philosophy (analogy of being). Other themes broached in this episode are listed in the Timestamps below.
