A History of Christian Theology

Continuing our time in Justin, Tom, Trevor and I (Chad) discuss Justin's "hermeneutic" of reading Scripture, his early Trinitarian theology and why this matters before the Council of Nicaea. Check out our blog for more thoughts on hermeneutics at www.ahistoryofchristiantheology.com.

We dig deep in this 2nd episode on Justin Martyr's Second Apology, into the ancient world of philosophy, contemporary conversations on morality and why heaven matters. Hope you enjoy it. Check out our blog at www.ahistoryofchristiantheology.com. Thanks!

Moving on to the 2nd great work from Justin, we look at the Martyr's 2nd, and smaller apology. Tom, Trevor and I will continue to work in the Divine Philosophy of Justin Martyr. We discuss the language of the empire, demonology, and heaven and hell in Justin's thought.

We welcome back Caleb Friz in this second installment of our discussion over Justin Martyr's First Apology. Much of the conversation will center around how convincing are Justin's arguments and what is the nature of apologetics.

We welcome Caleb Friz to stand up for the true atheists in this first podcast on Justin Martyr's First Apology. We discuss who the letter was written to, what persecution looked like in the ancient world, and what Justin knew about the age of various Mediterranean religions.

In this podcast, Tom, Trevor and Chad try and ferret out the various theological issues and assumptions of the Gospel of Thomas. We also take a stab at trying to figure out if it is fair to call this a Gnostic Text.
