WOF 219: Stoicism and Christianity
Stoicism is experiencing a cultural moment, especially among Millennial techies. What is this ancient school of philosophy? Why is it experiencing a revival? And how does it compare to Christianity? Bishop Barron discusses all that and more in today’s episode of the “Word on Fire Show.”
A listener asks if the word “holy” means set apart for a particular purpose, what exactly does it mean when we say God himself is holy?
