Miroslav Volf explores agapic love, creation's goodness, and God's grief—an alternative to despair, power, and world rejection.“When a wanted child is born, the immense joy of many parents often renders them mute, but their radiant faces speak of surprised delight: ‘Just look at you! It is so very good that you are here!' This delight precedes any judgment about the beauty, functionality, or moral rectitude of the child. The child's sheer existence, the mere fact of it, is ‘very good.' That's what I propose God, too, exclaimed, looking at the new-born world. And that unconditional love grounds creation's existence.”In this fourth Gifford Lecture, Miroslav Volf contrasts the selective and self-centered love of Ivan Karamazov with the radically inclusive, unconditional love of Father Zosima. Drawing deeply from Dostoevsky's The Brothers Karamazov, Genesis's creation and flood narratives, and Hannah Arendt's concept of amor mundi, Volf explores a theology of agapic love: unearned, universal, and enduring. This is the love by which God sees creation as “very good”—not because it is perfect, but because it exists. It's the love that grieves corruption without destroying it, that sees responsibility as mutual, and that offers the only hope for life in a deeply flawed world. With references to Luther, Nietzsche, and modern visions of power and desire, Volf challenges us to ask what kind of love makes a world, sustains it, and might one day save it. “Love the world,” he insists, “or lose your soul.”Episode Highlights“The world will either be loved with unconditional love, or it'll not be loved at all.”“Unconditional love abides. If the object of love is in a state that can be celebrated, love rejoices. If it is not, love mourns and takes time to help bring it back to itself.”“Each is responsible for all. Each is guilty for all. Each needs forgiveness from all. Each must forgive all.”“Creation is not primarily sacramental or iconic. It is an object of delight both for humans and for God.”“Agapic love demands nothing from the beloved, though it cares and hopes much for them and for the shared world with them.”Show NotesSchopenhauer and Nietzsche's visions of happiness: pleasure and power as substitutes for love“Love as hunger”: the devouring nature of epithemic desireIvan Karamazov's tragic love for life—selective, gut-level, and self-focused“There is still… this wild and perhaps indecent thirst for life in me”Father Zosima's universal love for “every leaf and every ray of God's light”“Love man also in his sin… Love all God's creation”Sonya and Raskolnikov in Crime and Punishment: love as restoration“She loved him and stayed with him—not although he murdered, but because he murdered”God's declaration in Genesis: “And look—it was very good”Hannah Arendt's amor mundi—“I want you to be” as pure affirmationCreation as gift: “Each is itself by being more than itself”Martin Luther on marriage, sex, and delight as godly pleasuresThe flood as hypothetical: divine grief replaces divine destruction“It grieved God to his heart”—grief as a form of agapic love“Each is responsible for all. Each is guilty for all.”Agape over erotic love: not reward and punishment, but faithful presence and care“Agapic love demands nothing… It is free, sovereign to love, humble.”Closing invitation: to live the life of love, under whatever circumstancesProduction NotesThis podcast featured Miroslav VolfEdited and Produced by Evan RosaHosted by Evan RosaProduction Assistance by Taylor Craig and Macie BridgeA Production of the Yale Center for Faith & Culture at Yale Divinity School https://faith.yale.edu/aboutSupport For the Life of the World podcast by giving to the Yale Center for Faith & Culture: https://faith.yale.edu/giveSpecial thanks to Dr. Paul Nimmo, Paula Duncan, and the media team at the University of Aberdeen.

Mary welcomes new guest Dr. Corey Miller of Ratio Christi ministry. Corey Miller grew up in Utah as a 7th generation Mormon. He came to Christ and later became a pastor, philosophy professor, campus minister, and now serves as the president and CEO of Ratio Christi. He has authored or edited 5 books and holds 3 masters degrees and a PhD from the University of Aberdeen, Scotland. His focus is on the intersection of faith, reason, and culture. His new book, “The Progressive Miseducation of America: Confronting the Cultural Revolution from the Classroom to Your Community” is set to release October 14. Today we discuss higher education's devolution into an echo chamber for leftist ideologies. Far from an actual education, today's ultra-liberal universities are really the gatekeepers for revolutionary ideas. We saw for ourselves how the curtain was pulled back to reveal rabid antisemitism from coast to coast. Is there any way to reclaim our once great educational institutions? A fascinating hour with Dr. Miller.   Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

Many people consider Jesus to be a great teacher and preacher, but few actually realise just how incredible and multilayered His teachings actually were.In this episode of Expositors Collective, Mike speaks with Dr. Peter J. Williams, the principal of Tyndale House in Cambridge, and the chair of the International Greek New Testament Project. He is also a member of the ESV Translation Oversight Committee, and the author of several books, including: Can We Trust the Gospels?Dr. Williams' latest book is called The Surprising Genius of Jesus: What the Gospels Reveal about the Greatest Teacher, in which he examines Jesus' teachings in the Gospels and shows how we know that these teachings truly do originate with Jesus, and that they show an incredible awareness of, and connection to the Old Testament in a way that would have triggered the memories of the first listeners, and which contains layers of meaning for us as readers today. Peter also gives insight into fruitful evangelism, unlocking of knowledge and some of the ways that Tyndale House can help ordinary preachers like us! Dr Peter J. Williams is the Principal and CEO of Tyndale House, Cambridge. He was educated at the University of Cambridge, where he received his MA, MPhil, and PhD in the study of ancient languages related to the Bible.

From 2003 to 2007 he was on the faculty of the University of Aberdeen, Scotland, where he became a Senior Lecturer in New Testament and Deputy Head of the School of Divinity, History, and Philosophy. Since 2007 he has been leading Tyndale House. Dr Williams is also an Affiliated Lecturer in the Faculty of Divinity in the University of Cambridge, Chair of the International Greek New Testament Project and a member of the Translation Oversight Committee of the English Standard Version of the Bible. He assisted Dr Dirk Jongkind in Tyndale House's production of a major edition of the Greek New Testament and his book Can We Trust the Gospels? (Crossway, 2018) has been translated into 13 languages.

The Go Radio Football Show: 7th of August, 2025 In Association with Burger King. This is a catch-up version of the live, daily Go Radio Football show.  Join host Paul Cooney alongside ex Celtic Striker Andy Walker and ex Rangers Defender Richard Foster. The episode opens with reflections on Rangers' impressive 3–0 win over Viktoria Plzeň in European competition. The performance was marked by high energy and tactical discipline, with standout contributions from Antman, Gassama, and Dessers. Russell Martin's bold managerial decisions - dropping captain James Tavernier and midfielder Nico Raskin - were praised for sparking a strong team response. His direct communication style and tactical clarity were seen as key to Rangers' resurgence. Celtic's season opener against St Mirren was also analysed. While the team secured a win, the performance was considered underwhelming, with Adam Idah missing key chances. Fans express concern over the lack of new signings, especially with Champions League qualifiers looming. Celtic were linked with winger Clément Bischoff and defender Adam Obert, and the recent signing of Simpson-Pusey from Manchester City was highlighted for his composure and passing ability. The need for a new striker and winger is discussed, with Maeda's relentless work rate and impact praised as vital to the team's success. The show also explores the importance of strong European performances by clubs like Hibs, Dundee United, and Aberdeen , along with the potential for Hearts to challenge the Old Firm in future seasons thanks to investment from Tony Bloom. The debate over whether Rangers now have the best front three in Scotland was lively, though Celtic are still seen as stronger overall. Pyrotechnics at matches led to suspended ticket allocations for Celtic, Aberdeen, and Partick Thistle, prompting calls for fans to follow regulations. Player spotlights included Aston Villa's rejection of an £18M bid from Everton for John McGinn, whose leadership and versatility is praised. Scott McTominay and Caroline Weir are both nominated for the Ballon d'Or, showcasing Scottish talent on the international stage. Bojan Miovski is suggested as a potential Celtic signing due to his intelligent movement and finishing ability. Looking ahead, the weekend fixtures promised excitement, with key matches including Aberdeen vs Celtic, Rangers vs Dundee, and St Mirren vs Motherwell. The transfer window, with 25 days remaining, is expected to bring strategic moves from both Celtic and Rangers.  Don't miss it – hit subscribe, play and get stuck in!

Miroslav Volf confronts Schopenhauer's pessimism and unquenchable thirst with a vision of love that affirms the world.“Unquenchable thirst makes for ceaseless pain. This befits our nature as objectification of the ceaseless and aimless will at the heart of reality. ... For Schopenhauer, the pleasure of satisfaction are the lights of fireflies in the night of life's suffering. These four claims taken together make pain the primordial, universal, and unalterable state of human lives.”In the second installment of his 2025 Gifford Lectures, Miroslav Volf examines the 19th-century philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer's radical rejection of the world. Through Schopenhauer's metaphysics of blind will and insatiable desire, Volf draws out the philosopher's haunting pessimism and hatred for existence itself. But Schopenhauer's rejection of the world—rooted in disappointed love—is not just a historical curiosity; Volf shows how our modern consumerist cravings mirror Schopenhauer's vision of unquenchable thirst and fleeting satisfaction. In response, Volf offers a theological and philosophical critique grounded in three kinds of love—epithumic (appetitive), erotic (appreciative), and agapic (self-giving)—arguing that agape love must be central in our relationship to the world. “Everything is a means, but nothing satisfies,” Volf warns, unless we reorder our loves. This second lecture challenges listeners to reconsider what it means to live in and love a world full of suffering—without abandoning its goodness.Episode Highlights“Unquenchable thirst makes for ceaseless pain.

Miroslav Volf on how to rightly love a radically ambivalent world.“The world, our planetary home, certainly needs to be changed, improved. But what it needs even more is to be rightly loved.”Miroslav Volf begins his 2025 Gifford Lectures at the University of Aberdeen with a provocative theological inquiry: What difference does belief in God make for our relationship to the world? Drawing deeply from Nietzsche's “death of God,” Schopenhauer's despair, and Hannah Arendt's vision of amor mundi, Volf explores the ambivalence of modern life—its beauty and horror, its resonance and alienation. Can we truly love the world, even amidst its chaos and collapse? Can a belief in the God of Jesus Christ provide motivation to love—not as appetite or utility, but as radical, unconditional affirmation? Volf suggests that faith offers not a retreat from reality, but an anchor amid its disorder—a trust that enables us to hope, even when the world's goodness seems impossible. This first lecture challenges us to consider the character of our relationship to the world, between atheism and theism, critique and love.Episode Highlights“The world, our planetary home, certainly needs to be changed, improved. But what it needs even more is to be rightly loved.”“Resonance seems both indispensable and insufficient. But what should supplement it? What should underpin it?”“Our love for that lived world is what these lectures are about.”“We can reject and hate one form of the world because we love the world as such.”“Though God is fully alive… we often find the same God asleep when our boats are about to capsize.”Helpful Links and ReferencesResonance by Hartmut RosaThe Human Condition by Hannah ArendtThis Life by Martin HägglundThe Home of God by Miroslav Volf and Ryan McAnnally-LinzThe City of God by AugustineDivine Comedy by DanteShow NotesPaul Nimmo introduces the Gifford Lectures and Miroslav Volf's themeVolf begins with gratitude and scope: belief in God and our worldIntroduces Nietzsche's “death of God” as cultural metaphorFrames plausibility vs. desirability of God's existenceIntroduces Hartmut Rosa's theory of resonanceProblem: resonance is not enough; what underpins motivation to care?Introduces amor mundi as thematic direction of the lecturesContrasts Marx's atheism and human liberation with Nietzsche's nihilismAnalyzes Dante and Beatrice in Hägglund's This LifeDistinguishes between “world” and “form of the world”Uses cruise ship metaphor to critique modern life's ambivalenceDiscusses Augustine, Hannah Arendt, and The Home of GodReflections on divine providence and theodicyBiblical images: flood, exile, and the sleeping GodEnds with preview of next lectures on Schopenhauer and NietzscheLet me know if you'd like episode-specific artwork prompts, promotional copy for social media, or a transcript excerpt formatted for publication.Production NotesThis podcast featured Miroslav VolfEdited and Produced by Evan RosaHosted by Evan RosaProduction Assistance by Taylor Craig and Macie BridgeA Production of the Yale Center for Faith & Culture at Yale Divinity School https://faith.yale.edu/aboutSupport For the Life of the World podcast by giving to the Yale Center for Faith & Culture: https://faith.yale.edu/giveSpecial thanks to Dr. Paul Nimmo, Paula Duncan, and the media team at the University of Aberdeen.

In a week where the Tall Ships Races took place in Aberdeen and Island Games in Orkney drew to a close, we’re going to be discussing some of the other stories that inspired The Week Junior team.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Michael Gove, now Lord Gove of Torry in the City of Aberdeen, was a cabinet minister under David Cameron, Theresa May, Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak. He ran to be leader of the Conservatives twice, famously killed off Boris Johnson's first tilt at the top job but backed him on Brexit, spectacularly falling out with David Cameron in the process in a drama portrayed in sometimes excruciating detail in a book by his ex-wife Sarah Vine. He has now gone back to his first trade of journalism as editor of the Spectator magazine.

President Donald Trump is heading to Scotland on Friday for a trip that blends golf with diplomacy. He'll first visit his Turnberry resort on Scotland's west coast, where he's set to meet British Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Monday for talks to advance the U.S.–UK trade deal. Trump will then travel 200 miles east to his Aberdeen property to open a second 18-hole course, which is named after his mother, Mary Anne MacLeod. She was born on a Scottish island before immigrating to the United States.Trump paid a rare visit to the Federal Reserve headquarters on Thursday, ramping up pressure on Fed Chairman Jerome Powell to cut interest rates. The two also clashed over a controversial Fed renovation project that's slated to cost billions of dollars. Powell defended the renovation costs, saying the building requires significant structural repairs.Lawmakers have subpoenaed the CEOs of two of America's biggest financial institutions, J.P. Morgan and Bank of America. They're under scrutiny for their roles in the initial public offering of Chinese battery giant, CATL. The company is flagged by the Defense Department as a Chinese military company. The chairman of the select committee on the CCP said that "Wall Street shouldn't be underwriting Chinese military companies—and the American people deserve transparency."

It's anchors aweigh for Out of Doors as we are live from the Tall Ships Races in Aberdeen.

He holds a BA in Painting from Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design, University of Dundee, and an MA in Curating and Contemporary Art Theory from the University of Edinburgh.Cox is known for his vibrant abstract oil paintings, which explore materiality and mark-making. Over the past decade, he has developed a distinctive process involving the transfer of thick layers of oil paint onto canvas using plastic sheets. His work is deeply informed by an interest in the built environment, topography, and defaced surfaces, resulting in a visual language that oscillates between colour field painting and abstract expressionism. Cox is represented by Halsey McKay Gallery in New York. He has held numerous solo exhibitions internationally, including at Halsey McKay Gallery and A Hug From The Art World (New York, USA); Galerie Jérôme Pauchant (Paris, France); Annarumma Gallery (Naples, Italy); and Galleri Benoni (Copenhagen, Denmark). He has also exhibited in various international group exhibitions and artist residencies. His work has been featured in publications such as Modern Painters Magazine, ArtNews, ArtInfo, Wall Street International, Copenhagen Contemporary, Art F City, and Dust Magazine.More information: www.stevencox.co.ukInstagram: @studiostevencoxIn addition to his art practice, Steven Cox is the founder of Hunted Projects, a contemporary art gallery and curatorial platform based in Edinburgh. Established in 2011, Hunted Projects fosters unique collaborations with both emerging and established artists. Central to its ethos is a commitment to conducting in-depth interviews that provide insight into each artist's creative process and conceptual approach.
