Jonathan and James welcome Ronnie Kurtz, assistant professor of theology at Cedarville University, to discuss his recent book, Light Unapproachable: Divine Incomprehensibility and the Task of Theology. Together, they delve into the concept of divine incomprehensibility—what it means to know God in a world where He remains fundamentally other than us.
Divine incomprehensibility is a theological term to describe a feeling that a lot of listeners have probably felt before. – Ronni Kurtz
Ronnie shares insights on how this doctrine has shaped theological thought throughout history, reminding us that theologians in all ages have wrestled with what we can and cannot say about God
My book is just a long lesson in humility. – Ronni Kurtz
Thanks to the generosity of IVP Academic, we are pleased to award a couple copies of Ronni Kurtz’s book, Light Unapproachable, to our listeners. Congratulations to David R. from Williamsburg, VA and Ryan S. from Jordan Station, Ontario!
