Description

In this enlightening exploration, we delve into the essence of religion as the foundational purpose of our existence and the key to our happiness. Religion, defined as the profound connection between ourselves and our Creator, requires a deep understanding of both Gods nature and our own. Central to this understanding are the two vital faculties of our being the Understanding and the Will. While both are crucial, the study of the Will holds particular significance, as it is where virtue and religious practice truly reside. This podcast addresses the pivotal question of the Freedom of the Will, a topic of utmost importance for Christians and theologians alike. Join us as we uncover the profound implications of this subject.
