Echoes of the Incarnation: Early Christian Formation, with Alex Fogleman
Manage episode 411928778 series 3322177
No affirmation more roundly rebuts the modern presumption that humans are merely "brains-on-sticks" than the core Christian confession that, in Jesus, God assumed human nature. To reckon fully with this fact is to enter into "a complex set of practices oriented toward the transformation of one's being and understanding of the world," the learning of "habits of body and mind that... draw [us] from foundational faith to beatific knowledge."
So writes Alex Fogleman (Institute for Studies of Religion; founding director, Catechesis Institute), in his new study of early Christian formation, Knowledge, Faith, and Early Christian Initiation. In this episode, Sam Fornecker chats with Alex about the diverse ways in which early Christians were led to know the triune God revealed in Christ.
