About this episode

Brad and Paul discuss the philosophical and theological implications of the work of William Desmond in relation to Sergius Bulgakov.

Brad and Paul discuss the convergence of the work of William Desmond with that of Sergius Bulgakov, noting that Desmond's work can be read as on a continuum through Maximus, Hegel, and Bulgakov, which is perhaps the most serious contemporary attempt to think out philosophically and theologically the implications of the Gospel.
