  Grave Among Grave Men

  My Redeemer Liveth

  May 7, 20261h 7m

  Myron and Martin argue that Christian maturity comes not from waiting for divine hints but from exercising wisdom under God’s rule. They discuss civility around privacy in public spaces, visit New York City’s High Line Park, and turn to Aquinas on angels, beatitude, and the distinct glory of human beings choosing to worship God. “For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth.” —Job 19:25, KJV 06:30 Opening Reflections: God's plan and our stupidity 43:19 Rules of Civility: Giving strangers privacy 52:05 Roadside Attractions: High Line Park 58:06 Summa Theologica (Prima Pars, Q61–62) For a reference guide to the Rules of Civility and a complete index of the Calvin and Aquinas readings discussed on the podcast, visit www.gettingwisdompodcast.com.
