In this podcast, Steven Duby and Matthew Barrett discuss the necessity of natural theology for Christians today. By showing the eternal wisdom of God’s plan and his providential guiding hand in creation, they make the case for a robust, and biblical, natural theology. In doing so, they discuss general and special revelation using texts like Romans 1, Acts 17, and the Psalms. Additionally, they outline some of Aquinas’ essential work on natural theology and discuss some objections to it, notably those of Karl Barth.
