Two PhD theologians with tendencies towards red wine, real scotch, and hilarious (humble) banter tackle your theological questions as well as our own day to day musings. Sounds like a good time to me (humbly). All opinions, thoughts, terrible jokes, etc are our own and not representative of our respective institutions.

A sometimes weekly and sometimes irreverent and always entertaining exploration of the Christian worldview.

David Hume, a luminary of 18th-century Scottish intellectual circles, left an indelible imprint on philosophy and theology. His profound speculations arguably held the most significant influence of his era, rivalled only by Adam Smith in a certain sphere. Humes impact was not immediately recognized, with time needed to dispel misconceptions and reveal his true intellectual stature.

Hume is undeniably a grand and autonomous thinker, and this text examines his philosophical approach as an attempt to ...

Theology–which literally translates to “God-talk”–gets little positive attention in the public sphere. In secular circles, it often gets written off as superstitious nonsense, while in religious circles, it tends to be thought of as the heady, up-in-the-clouds stuff that priests and professors argue about. And for those of us who don’t fall on one of the two extremes, we’re often left to study and talk about our theology in private. But what if theology is more than mere superstitious nonsense or religious jargon? What if theology has much to contribute in our thinking about all ...

While teaching ethics is universally applauded, how one goes about it is much more difficult and contested than is often recognized. On Teaching and Learning Christian Ethics addresses what it means to teach and learn ethics through a thorough comparison of two ethicists, Henry Sidgwick and F. D. Maurice. Where Sidgwick understood ethics as developing a method for guiding voluntary action to what is right, Maurice maintained that ethics concerns life as a whole, and that requires placing it within a metaphysical and theological realm in which the good is much more definitive than right.
