Why did the wrong guy win? The Disastrous results of the rivalry between two visions of God
Gospel Conversations welcomes you to the third talk on Gregory of Nyssa between Tony Golsby-Smith and David Bentley Hart. The towering genius of Augustine casts a long and too often dark shadow over western Christianity. What would Christianity have looked like if the equal genius of Gregory had achieved such dominance? Why did the wrong guy win?
Tony and David rove over these questions in a riveting conversation.
David Bentley Hart is a prolific essayist and theologian. His translation of the New Testament published in 2017 has generated much interest and has been generally well received. As a follower of Eastern Orthodoxy he has written much against the rise of atheism. He is regarded as one of the 21st century's leading theologians.
