About this listen

Have you ever heard of a philosopher named Descartes? The one who said, "I think therefore I am"? Many Christians were not impressed because he made himself the proof of anything that is real. He also believed that soul and body are completely separate, while the Bible teaches they are tightly related. One of the first Christians who challenged his teachings was Elisabeth, Princess Palatine of Bohemia (in today's Czech Republic). Join Sophia, Emma, and Grace as they ask American philosopher and author Dr. Phillip Cary to explain Descartes's ideas and their impact on church history.
