Augustine’s City of God: In Defense of Love in a Divided World with Dr. Greg Lee
In this enlightening episode, David sits down with Dr. Gregory Lee to explore Augustine’s seminal work “City of God” and its enduring wisdom for those living as spiritual exiles. How do we sustain hope when our stability seems to crumble? How do we navigate the tension of aligning our vision with the heavenly city while laboring in the midst of the brokenness of this one? With insight and compassion, David and Greg reflect on the dangers of disordered love, the cost of faithful presence, and how hope becomes our compass in an age marked by dislocation and striving. Their conversation offers a pastoral and prophetic lens into Augustine’s vision, challenging us to love rightly and work faithfully—even when we feel displaced.
