This lecture discusses key ideas from the medieval Christian philosopher and theologian Thomas Aquinas' Summa Theologiae, 1st part, question 20 "God's Love", and examines on his discussion in article 1, which addresses the issue whether love is in God. Aquinas considers several arguments against love being in God and addresses each of them. He also explains how it is that love is in God by looking at how the will tends towards the universal or common good through love.

St. Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274) - Aquinas brought the development of Catholic thought and theology to a plateau, navigating the middle path between Augustine and Pelagius; Anselm and Abelard; and even Plato and Aristotle. He's called the Common Doctor because the Church has affirmed that his teaching should be taught, and held up as the standard, in every school, university, and seminary.

This is a powerful episode of The Appraiser's Advocate.  In it, Timothy C. Andersen, MAI, explores what an ancient Roman legend can teach us today.  We appraisers need to practice ethics, morality, and professional courage. “Horatius at the Bridge” by Thomas Babington Macaulay tells the story of one soldier who stood alone.  His charge was to defend Rome's bridge against invading forces. Andersen draws a striking parallel between Horatius's moral stand and the modern residential real estate appraiser's duty to protect the bridge of public trust. When clients, lenders, and market pressures push for quick or biased results, the appraiser's courage and adherence to USPAP's Ethics Rule become acts of modern heroism. Through vivid storytelling, Andersen weaves together virtue ethics, Aristotle's golden mean, Aquinas's right reasoning for the right reasons, and the sacred calling of truth-telling in valuation. Listeners will discover why each credible appraisal is a defense of market integrity. How ethical resistance protects the profession.  And why impartiality, objectivity, and independence are not just regulatory words—but moral commitments. Join this 12-minute journey through history, philosophy, and professionalism—and rediscover why appraisers stand as the guardians of economic justice.  Make sure your E&O Insurance is up to date and you have an administrative law attorney on your speed dial!

He says,The faithful are meant to look around with clear eyes and see what is happening.All things come from God. It is an attention to the things of God, as his presence is everywhere, in human affairs, in politics, in nature, and in history."God is in all things by essence, presence, and power,” taught us St. Thomas.Aquinas.He is not a distant deity, but the Living God!We pray today's Rosary, on the feast of St. Anthony of Claret, from Tempe, Arizona.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Today, Ben is joined by Chris Schilmoeller—Orlando-based financial advisor and former FOCUS missionary—for a deep dive into what it might mean to have Thomas Aquinas as your financial advisor. Chris reflects on his own journey from campus evangelization to financial planning, sharing how Aquinas's emphasis on order, integration, and the proper end of human life continues to shape his work. The conversation explores Aquinas's treatment of money, happiness, and stewardship, with special attention to the tension between Christ's teaching on poverty and the practical responsibilities of wealth. Together, they unpack the virtue of liberality as a sign of rightly ordered finances, the dangers of money becoming an idol, and the call to view abundance as an opportunity for generosity rather than self-indulgence. Grounded in both theology and lived experience, their discussion highlights how faith can illuminate financial decisions, offering a vision where money serves not as an end in itself but as a means to deepen virtue, strengthen families, and grow in communion with God and neighbor.Key Takeaways:• Thomas Aquinas emphasized order and integration, qualities that can guide financial planning today.• Money itself is not inherently problematic—it is our attachment to it that can lead us astray.• Aquinas's commentary on the Beatitudes highlights that being “poor in spirit” is compatible with financial success if one's heart is rightly ordered.• Prudence is required: one should not give recklessly at the expense of family responsibilities.• Radical poverty is a specific vocation, not a universal mandate for all Christians.• Financial planning, when ordered toward virtue and stewardship, becomes a pathway to holiness rather than a distraction from it.Key Timestamps:(03:02) – Thomas Aquinas: A Brief Introduction(09:12) – Aquinas as Your Financial Advisor(16:01) – The Pursuit of Happiness(21:44) – The Corruptive Nature of Money(22:36) – Aquinas on Happiness and Money(26:21) – The Virtue of Liberality(28:30) – Balancing Wealth and Responsibility(33:51) – The Role of StewardshipKey Topics Discussed:Catholic Money Mastermind, Catholic financial planning, Catholic financial planners, Catholic financial advisors, Ben Martinek, faith and finances, Thomas AquinasMentions:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chrisschilmoeller/  Mentions: https://focus.org/ More of Catholic Money Mastermind:Catholic Money Mastermind Podcast is a personal podcast meant for educational and entertainment.

You might know St. John Paul II for Theology of the Body—but that's just scratching the surface. In this episode, Dr. Greg shares why JP2's deeper philosophy holds the key to understanding the human person today—especially in a world of AI therapy, psychedelics, and emotional confusion. Key Topics: Why relying solely on Aquinas isn't enough for addressing the psychological and spiritual needs of today The philosophical genius of St. John Paul II—and why he's more than just the "Theology of the Body pope" The critical difference between being a therapist who's Catholic and doing authentically Catholic therapy How personalism bridges timeless Church teaching with the complexities of modern life Why understanding subjective experience is essential for Catholic therapists, clergy, and educators How personalism offers a Catholic answer to postmodern relativism without losing objective truth Learn More: Theology of the Body for Beginners by Christopher West – A clear, accessible introduction to John Paul II's groundbreaking teaching on love, sexuality, and the human person.

Episode Topic: The Christology of DemonsWhat can be known about Jesus Christ intellectually when one doesn't believe in Him? What exactly did the demons in the Gospels know about Jesus' identity? Did they see Jesus as a prophet or as a promised Messiah? Consider the case of demons, as St. Thomas Aquinas did, to gain a better understanding, by way of contrast, of what it means to truly know Jesus Christ.Featured Speakers:Fr.

What does it mean to speak of eternity? Is eternity best understood as infinite time, stretching endlessly forward and backward, or as something wholly outside of time—a changeless, timeless "eternal now"? In this episode, the hosts wrestle with these competing conceptions, drawing on philosophy, theology, and personal experience to ask whether eternity is a thinkable concept or a regulative ideal forever beyond our grasp.The discussion ranges from Aristotle's view of time as the measure of motion to medieval analogies of rivers and "standing nows," from Aquinas's theology of resurrected bodies to Nietzsche's dark thought of the eternal return. The hosts consider whether eternity should be tied to perfection, necessity, or redemption, and explore whether such ideas have anything to offer our day-to-day human lives.Full episode notes available at this link:https://hotelbarpodcast.com/podcast/eternity---------------------SUBSCRIBE to the podcast now to automatically download new episodes when Season 14 begins in September!SUPPORT Hotel Bar Podcast on Patreon here!

How do you forgive when everything in you wants to hold on?In this episode, Matt and Erin close out our series on anger and sorrow in the wake of Charlie Kirk's assassination by tackling forgiveness—what it is, what it isn't, and how to choose it when it feels impossible. Drawing on Scripture, Aquinas, coaching experience, and neuroscience, we show why unforgiveness keeps you in bondage (and in brain “threat mode”) while forgiveness frees the heart, sharpens the mind, and breaks cycles of violence.In this episode you'll learn:•  The real definition of forgiveness (act of the will, not a feeling)•  Why forgiving does not mean condoning, forgetting, or instant        reconciliation•  How forgiveness calms stress circuits and restores clarity/self-control•  10 common lies that block forgiveness—and the truth that breaks them•  A simple 3-step path: Name the offense → Process with Jesus → Choose    to forgive (again if needed)Next steps•  Grow these skills in our Mission Coach Training (quarterly cohorts)•.

Brendon Naicker traces the forgotten language of the veil — from Genesis to Corinth, from the Church Fathers to the modern age — uncovering how the simple act of covering the head in worship reveals a profound theology of creation, gender, and divine order. Drawing on voices from Augustine and Tertullian to Aquinas, Calvin, Bonhoeffer, and Barth, this reflection shows that the covering is not about fabric but about glory; not about control but about reverence. Through Scripture, history, and prayer, Naicker invites the Church to recover a theology of embodied worship — where the body once again tells the truth of the soul and creation is seen as the visible grammar of divine grace. #LivingTheology #BrendonNaicker, #VeiledGlory, #TheologyOfWorship, #CreationOrder, #BiblicalTheology, #ChristianTradition, #HeadCovering, #EmbodiedFaith, #ChurchHistory, #PatristicWisdom, #ReformedTheology, #ApostolicTradition, #SpiritualFormation, #HolinessAndOrder

Sorrow isn't weakness—it's wisdom.In this episode, Matt and Erin explore how to process sorrow in a virtuous, Christ-centered way in the wake of a widely publicized tragedy. Building on last week's conversation about anger, they turn to Aquinas, pastoral experience, and practical tools so you can feel sorrow rightly—without numbing out or falling into despair.What you'll learn • What sorrow is (Aquinas) and why it's morally neutral but must be                guided by reason/charity • The difference between deficient, excessive, and virtuous sorrow • A 6-step process to move from paralysis to prayerful action and                compassion • How to unite sorrow to Christ (“Jesus wept”) and offer it for others—                without losing hopeTry this today: Identify one specific cause of sadness, rate its intensity, and ask: Is this moving me toward prayer, mercy, or constructive action?

What would St. Thomas Aquinas say if he were your financial advisor? In this special conversation, Jonathan sits down with Catholic financial planner Chris Schilmoeller to explore the timeless wisdom of Aquinas on money, value, and human flourishing.Together, they discuss why modern financial advice often falls short, how Aquinas helps us see money not as an end but as a means to virtue, and why chasing “more” can easily become an idol if we lose sight of God. You'll walk away with a deeper understanding of how Catholic teaching can transform your financial decisions—and why it matters for your family, vocation, and eternal life.

St. Bonaventure (1221-1274) continued the legacy of St. Anthony and was the Franciscan counterpart to Aquinas. He's called the second founder of the Franciscans, and the Prince of the Mystics, because he continued the mystical tradition of St. Bernard of Clairvaux, and he preserves for us the mystical spirituality of St. Francis of Assisi, as well as being an important influence on later mystics, such as St. John of the Cross.

This year marks 800 years since the birth of the theologian St Thomas Aquinas. Aquinas, best known for his theory of natural law and his magnum opus the Summa Theologia, argued for the existence of God through faith-based reason. The influence of the 13th Century theologian on the philosophy of religion is unquestionable, but what is curious is his resurgent popularity amongst Generation Z – particularly in America. Is this part of the recovery of the sacred seen across the global west?Fr Gregory Pine OP, professor of dogmatic and moral theology at the Dominican House of Studies, joins Damian Thompson to talk about Aquinas's legacy, unpack some of the philosopher's more complicated arguments and describe his own personal journey within the Order of Preachers.Produced by Patrick Gibbons.

Send us a text by clicking this link!"The middle children of history, man, no purpose or place. We have no great war, no great depression. Our great war is a spiritual war." These opening words set the tone for a profound conversation about navigating our rapidly changing cultural landscape.In this deeply relevant episode, we're joined by George from Chivalry Guild to discuss how recent political violence has signaled a fundamental shift in American society. The conversation opens with a sobering reflection: we've crossed a precipice from which there's no return. The America many of us grew up in no longer exists, and our children face a harder future than we did.George offers invaluable insights into reclaiming authentic Christian masculinity in troubled times. Drawing from Aquinas and CS Lewis, he challenges the misconception that meekness equals weakness, instead revealing it as "strength under control"—the virtue that allows righteous anger while maintaining good judgment. This framework provides a path for responding to injustice without surrendering to either rage or apathy.The discussion turns practical as we explore building resilient communities. We emphasize developing your "fire team"—three to four dependable people who will answer your call at 3am without question. These local, tangible relationships form the foundation of resilience when institutions fail. We cover church security considerations, personal protection strategies, and the importance of getting involved in local politics where your influence can make real differences.Throughout the conversation runs a thread of hope—not naive optimism, but the grounded confidence that comes from preparation and purpose. By strengthening your family, building committed communities, and developing personal virtue, you can face uncertain times with courage rather than fear.Join us for this essential conversation about making yourself "a little bit better every day" physically, mentally, and spiritually. The highway ahead may be dangerous, but with proper preparation and strong communities, we can navigate these challenging times together.Support the show"Protect Catholic Kids" Shirt Fundraiser for Victims of Annunciation Shooting: https://avoiding-babylon-shop.fourthwall.com/collections/protect-catholic-kids ********************************************************Please subscribe! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKsxnv80ByFV4OGvt_kImjQ?sub_confirmation=1https://www.avoidingbabylon.comMerchandise: https://avoiding-babylon-shop.fourthwall.comLocals Community: https://avoidingbabylon.locals.comFull Premium/Locals Shows on Audio Podcast: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1987412/subscribeRSS Feed for Podcast Apps: https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1987412.rssRumble: https://rumble.com/c/AvoidingBabylon

Commander John Sharpe joins John-Henry Westen for a frank look at how Catholic just war teaching collides with modern U.S. foreign policy. A decorated Navy officer, Sharpe recounts his own “cancellation before it was cool” after opposing the Iraq War, drawing on Aquinas, Vatican II, and Leo XIII to argue that America's wars often fail the tests of just cause, last resort, and proportionality.He exposes how leaders exploit fear, like the infamous “mushroom cloud” threat, to bypass moral analysis, leaving soldiers, families, and nations scarred. The conversation ranges from the false logic of punishing nations for possible future crimes, to the bipartisan collapse of moral coherence that saw Pat Buchanan and Noam Chomsky aligned against Iraq. With ties to Versailles, the Balfour Declaration, and today's Middle East turmoil, Sharpe urges Catholics to reject propaganda before another war is waged under false pretenses.U.S. residents!

In this episode of the Biblical Anarchy Podcast, host Jacob Winograd sits down with RT Hadley, a 20-year Air Force veteran turned Christian writer, to wrestle with the difficult question: Has the United States ever fought a truly just war? Drawing from Hadley's military service in Iraq, his spiritual reflections, and his studies on just war theory, the two explore how patriotism, faith, and war collide in the American story. Together they consider the church's entanglement with empire, the writings of Augustine and Aquinas, and how Christians today can faithfully engage politics without compromising spiritual integrity.The conversation traces Hadley's personal journey from neoconservatism to libertarian anti-interventionism, examining the moral weight of war through the lens of both history and Scripture. Topics include the Revolutionary War, America's modern interventions, Christian nationalism, and the enduring call of Christ to love neighbor and enemy alike. This dialogue is both challenging and pastoral, calling believers to discern where loyalty to Caesar ends and faithfulness to Christ begins.Full Episode Notes at BiblicalAnarchyPodcast.comThe Biblical Anarchy Podcast is part of the Christians For Liberty Network, a project of the Libertarian Christian Institute.Audio Production by Podsworth Media.

They discuss the importance of humor in philosophy, the historical context of Plato's works, and the relevance of the Euthyphro dilemma in modern culture.

Dr. Taylor Marshall joins John-Henry Westen to discuss his new book, Christian Patriot, and the controversy surrounding Pope Leo XIV's early papacy. Marshall argues that modern conservatism has failed because it severed itself from Catholic political philosophy, insisting true renewal must be grounded in Augustine, Aquinas, and the Beatitudes. He outlines a vision of Christian patriotism that defends marriage, family, and moral order while reviving authentic teachings on just war and liberty. The discussion turns sharply to Pope Leo's recent meeting with Fr. James Martin and approval of an LGBTQ+ pilgrimage, which Marshall calls “a punch to the gut” for faithful Catholics.Learn more about Christian Patriot, and the controversy surrounding Pope Leo XIV's early papacy, and get the book here: https://amzn.to/46kTqqU.S. residents!
