Theologians are always accused of being worshipless creatures, and you have dispelled that notion handily. I love and worship the LORD much more because of you.

A few years ago, I bought God With Us when the Kindle version was on sale, and I’ve never been the same. Understanding God’s aseity and His condescension was the key to help me know Him in a way I never would have otherwise. Other than the Bible, it remains my favorite book. Thanks.

I tried to buy a hard copy a while back and was told it’s unavailable because you are working on a second edition. Please know I’m waiting anxiously!

I would. Boethius’ doctrine of the Trinity is not as “developed” as Thomas. He indicates, for example, that God is pure form (which Thomas rejected). But, overall, the philosophical elements eclipse the biblical elements, in my estimation.

As far as I know, the same general theme, but with some differences in topics and focus. Likely a very good read, but I have not been able to look at it carefully.

I’m currently reading Boethius’ work on the Trinity for a second time.

T.J. Crawford, republished by Reformation Heritage.

Very good interview!
