Is the Secular Sacred?

A Livestream toward a Protestant account of nature and grace

I did my first Substack Live this afternoon, discussing the Protestant theology of nature and grace. Following on my recent discussions of whether the secular is sacred, I go back before the fall and ask if nature was, even then, sanctified by grace. Was the covenant of works a gift of grace, i.e., supernature? Should Protestants accept Aquinas’ doctrine of the beatific vision?

These are all the questions I’ll have to answer toward a Protestant theology of nature and grace. Towards the end of the video, I put forward a hypothesis that I call theological naturalism — just so that no one is happy with it. Enjoy!

And if you want to get access to these livestreams in the future, make sure to download the mobile Substack app:
