Listen "What Angels Cannot Do"
Episode Synopsis
Myron and Martin reflect on the freedom God gives us to choose well—or poorly. In today’s readings, Aquinas examines the name “Father” as a personal name of God, while Calvin affirms that Scripture reveals God more clearly than any other source. Today's roadside attraction is a beignet café in New Orleans, and today's civility rule addresses the subtle etiquette of accepting an invitation to stay as a houseguest."Scripture bears upon the face of it as clear evidence of its truth, as white and black do of their colour, sweet and bitter of their taste."—Institutes, 1.7.202:33 Opening Reflections: On moral choices and modern comforts27:19 Rules of Civility: Accept after one refusal41:36 Roadside Attractions: Café Du Monde46:32 Summa Theologica (Prima Pars, Q35)58:56 Institutes (1.6.3–1.7.2)
