LAW. What is it good for?
Manage episode 296125700 series 2891402
How should Christians think about law? Not the Levitical law, but law itself in our nations and societies. What even is a law? How is our legal tradition founded in Greek philosophy? How did Augustine and Aquinas develop that? This week, Onsi and Rhys grill Colin on these questions and more, off the back of his recent Davenant House intensive on the topic.
