  • Classical Theism? What's All The Fuss?
    Oct 2 2024

    What's all the fuss around the doctrine of God, and in particular, what some people have started calling classical theism? That terms is meant to reflect the general Christian consensus over the last 2000 years about the doctrine of God, which some today say evangelicals and Protestants generally have drifted away from. Why are Christian thinkers animated about it?

    Why is Wyatt so animated about it? (He gets animated about it.)

    0:00 - Intro to Classical Theism

    5:56 - What We Yearn For (and Augustine)

    13:03 - How Modernity Modernized God

  • Solving The Problem of Parental Minimalism
    Sep 18 2024

    How should we instill virtue in the next generation?

    Parenting can often be reduced to a building up of skills to be placed on one's resume: sociability, math proficiency, computer literacy, and perhaps a few participation trophies too. But modern education can often lack the cardinal virtues: wisdom (prudence), justice, courage (fortitude), and self-control (temperance), as well as the theological virtues: faith, hope, and charity (love).

    In this episode, we riff off of Phil's latest pieces for The Gospel Coalition Canada: How Then Shall We Educate?

    0:00 - Virtue in Parenting

    4:43 - Parental Minimalism and Gaps in Education

    10:06 - Potential for Virtue

    16:14 - Why Virtue Formation Is Important Now

    21:31 - Classical Schools?

    27:59 - The Bible and Virtue
