St. Thomas Aquinas and the God of Faith and Reason
Dr. Wunsch introduces us to St. Thomas Aquinas and his contributions to Catholic theology by way of philosophy. We examine the definition of philosophy, comparing it to theology and exploring where the two sciences overlap. Discover the critical role of philosophy in the studies of the theologian, and how it lends logical support and credibility to those truths which we come to know by faith.
