Podcast Description
What does it truly mean to worship the one true God? Today Hippolytus of Rome delivers a powerful defense of the Trinity against the modalist heresy of Noetus, showing how the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are distinct yet one in power and economy. Augustine continues his raw self-examination, confessing how the beauty of sacred music can elevate the soul to God while also tempting the senses toward distraction. Thomas Aquinas then brings sharp clarity, teaching the proper reverence due to God’s name and exposing superstition and idolatry as corruptions of true religion. These readings call us back to faithful worship of God as He has revealed Himself.
