About this listen

In this episode of Theology Unpacked, Dr John Moffatt SJ traces how early Christians wrestled with expressing the mystery at the heart of their faith: that Jesus is both truly God and truly human.

From Ignatius of Loyola’s vision of the Trinity to the clash between Cyril of Alexandria and Nestorius of Antioch. Dr John traces how the Church arrived at the Council of Chalcedon definition in 451: one person in two natures, fully divine and fully human. It's a journey from analysis back to contemplation and mystery.
