Through the Church Fathers: August 14

Through the Church Fathers by C. Michael Patton

Episode notes

A reflection on how divine truth engages us—through prophecy, memory, and spiritual action. Inspired by Irenaeus’s vision of cosmic order under God’s rule, Augustine’s meditation on memory and time, and Aquinas’s insight into angels working within nature, today’s readings invite us into a deeper awareness of how God governs the world, sustains our minds, and moves across creation through spiritual agency.

Readings: Irenaeus of Lyons — Against Heresies, Book 5, Chapters 24–25 Augustine of Hippo — The Confessions, Book 11, Chapter 38 Thomas Aquinas — Summa Theologica, Part 1, Question 110: How Angels Act on Bodies
