Dani Ross and Parker Haratine continue the interview with Scott Harrower on his recently released book, Dawn of Sunday, co-written with Joshua Cockayne and Preston Hill. We pick up this episode by talking about God and the Church’s involvement in recovery from trauma, forgiveness and reconciliation, and hope.

Though this podcast takes a theological approach to trauma and recovery, everything we say assumes that the best of medical treatment is included in the process of recovery.

We hope you enjoy!

This is episode 29 of the Logos Institute Podcast. In it, we decided to release the audio from the recent National Logos Lecture, which was given by Professor Yujin Nagasawa (University of Birmingham & Co-Director of the John Hick Centre for the Philosophy of Religion) on May 24, 2019.

In this talk, Professor Nagasawa begins by rehearsing the history of the problem of evil and developing his own version of it that he dubs the systemic problem of evil (i.e. concerning the system of natural selection and all the evil it implies). He then turns his attention to the thesis of ethical optimism (i.e. the claim that the world is sufficiently good to be good on the whole) and how it conflicts with the empirical observations he mentioned prior in his development of the systemic problem of evil. This then leads to a conflict of rationality, he thinks, for ethically optimistic atheists since it seems practically impossible to endorse both ethical optimism and atheism simultaneously. More importantly, however, he thinks that even if the atheist can reconcile her commitment to both theses, the atheist's prospects for success look far less hopeful than the theists.

This is episode 18 of the Logos Institute Podcast, the official podcast of the Logos Institute for Analytic and Exegetical Theology. In this second part of our interview with Dr Christa McKirland, we (Dr McKirland, Stephanie Nicole Nordby, and Jonathan C. Rutledge) discuss the Logia Initiative within Logos, for which Dr McKirland serves as the director. Logia seeks to support women who want to pursue the study of divinity (theology) in the academy, all the way from the undergraduate level to faculty or staff. Throughout the discussion, we discuss important questions including...(1) How can we pursue gender equality in theology with integrity and in a way that is inclusive of a wide range of theological viewpoints? (2) What are the roles men might play in furthering the vision of Logia? and (3) What are some concrete examples in the church and academy that illustrate the importance of an initiative like Logia.

Preoccupation with the present is an essential component of finance-dominated capitalism. However, there are different ways, some better than others, in which we can be preoccupied with the present. Indeed, we might conceive of the present moment itself in different ways depending on our theological views. Professor Tanner explores how a Christian understanding of and emphasis on the present might improve upon or conflict with the preoccupation on the present found in finance-dominated capitalism.

This lecture was recorded on 15 February 2018 and hosted by the Logos Institute for Analytic and Exegetical Theology at the University of St Andrews.
