Talks, Lectures, and Interviews

What is God’s most appropriate name, and why should this question matter? In this lecture, Rev. Dr. Boersma navigates the Neoplatonic tradition and saints Gregory of Nyssa, Dionysius, and Maximus to make the claim that God’s most appropriate name is Love, and he unpacks the implications of this claim for our understanding of nature and the supernatural.

This lecture traces the separation of nature and the supernatural beyond the late Middle Ages to the theology of Saint Thomas Aquinas. In short, the secularism of modernity requires that we read creation not primarily as substance but as relationship: the harmonious chant of the love that is God.

This lecture explains how Saint Maximus regards the church building as a key instance of the sacramental unity of heavenly and earthly realities.

Dr Boersma joins Will on the discuss two main topics: what is a sacramental tapestry and how do we encounter evil through a theological lens. Dr Boersma empathizes with the amount of evil this profession deals with each day. I hope you enjoy this episode!
