Reading Augustine’s City of God in a Time of Crises For Your Consideration

Welcome to “For Your Consideration,” a podcast of the Christian Study Center. The podcast features audio from our events as well as occasional interviews with scholars and writers.
In this episode, you can listen to a talk by Dr. Michael Allen presented at the Study Center on September 19th. Dr. Allen is Professor of Systematic Theology at Reformed Theological Seminary. He is presently writing a four-volume systematic theology to be published with Baker Academic. He is also preparing a new edition of the Cambridge Companion to Christian Doctrine. With Dr. Scott Swain, he serves as general editor of the T & T Clark International Theological Commentary series and the New Studies in Dogmatics series for Zondervan Academic.
Dr. Allen’s lecture was titled “Lessons from Hippo: Reading Augustine’s City of God in a Time of Crises” and explored how Augustine’s work can guide our thought and action through our own period of crisis and upheaval.
