Q&A with Gavin Ortlund, Matthew Barrett, and Louis Markos
In this Credo Conference Q&A, Gavin Ortlund, Matthew Barrett, and Louis Markos discuss the beatific vision, the Christian use of pagan philosophy, the relationship between Scripture and nature, and how God could appoint the suffering of the cross as the path to true happiness. Together, they show that Christianity does not destroy human longing or reason. Instead, it is the fulfillment of all good human philosophy and true understanding, pointing our thoughts and desires to their final end in the vision of God.
Join us this Fall, October 17th, for Aquinas KC. Register here to hear Matthew Barrett, Dominic Legge, and many others talk about The Happy Life: Human Flourishing and the Search for God. Seating is limited, so register soon!
