Dr. Jonathan Lyonhart is convinced that everything we do has theological import. He's also passionate about the idea that anyone who does work for the church ought to do so by drawing from the rich well of Christian tradition.

This is one unique book! By using the genre of a script with stage performance cues and three main protagonists, Lyonhart presents an elegant, witty, and clever case for the Trinity as the key to engaging the most significant challenges to Christian faith. In fact, by means of the character Idi, thirteen objections to Christian faith are listed and then tackled, but not in a way that you might expect. In a conversational yet philosophically sophisticated manner, the book covers such ground as the Trinity, the incarnation, the nature of free will and responsibility, the problem of the soul and the problem of evil, world religions, Feuerbach, morality, patriarchy, and more besides! Guest: Jonathan Lyonhart received his PhD from Cambridge University, and is now Assistant Professor of Theology and Philosophy at Lincoln Christian University, as well as a Fellow at the Cambridge Centre for the Study of Platonism and a Co-Host of the Spiritually Incorrect Podcast. He's the author of MonoThreeism: An Absurdly Arrogant Attempt to Answer All the Problems of the Last 2000 Years in One Night at a Pub.

Jonathan Lyonhart (PhD, Cambridge) presents arguments for/against the existence of God @ the University of Cambridge, 2019 Festival of Ideas.

Cambridge Festival 2021 Quick Bites // Religion & Theology at Lunchtime series Space is one of the oddest things in reality. It is seemingly infinite, invisible, omnipresent, and can interact with matter without necessarily being reducible to it. Yet are these attributes not usually ascribed to God? The 17th Century Christian Platonist Henry More argued that God simply was space. This view—in an arguably altered form—was highly influential on Isaac Newton, and thereby provided the metaphysical and theological foundations for the new physics. Of course, this divine space was soon secularized into the aether and then relativized by Einstein. Yet a number of recent philosophers—including Richard Swinburne, William Lane Craig, and John Lucas—have argued that a metaphysical space and time can be made consistent with relativity, allowing the possibility of divine space to be explored anew. What if God is space; what if God is literally that in which we live, and move, and have our being? Would this be pantheism (i.e., merging God and matter) or precisely a way to avoid pantheism, for space is not matter but rather the container of matter? Come and find out if divine space is odd, interesting, or heretical. Jonathan Lyonhart is a philosopher, theologian, author, and ordained minister, and PhD student at the Faculty of Divinity, University of Cambridge.

An old friend from High School has written a book called "MonoThreeism: An Absurdly Arrogant Attempt to Answer All the Problems of the Last 2000 Years in One Night at a Pub". It's in keeping with his great sense of humour and contains a nice balance of academic ideas and popular level writing. Jonathan Lyonhart argues that the trinity doesn't need to be rational in the same way and for the same reason that Big Bang Theories don't need to be rational. There's something about explanations for the origin and foundation of reality where rationality must be violated, or so he argues. Jonathan Lyonhart (PhD, Cambridge) is an assistant professor of theology and philosophy at Lincoln Christian University and a Fellow at the Cambridge Center for the Study of Platonism. His most recent book, MonoThreeism, explores the intersection of Trinitarian theology, philosophy, and cosmology, and is available now on Amazon MonoThreeism: An Absurdly Arrogant Attempt to Answer All the Problems of the Last 2000 Years in One Night at a Pub https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0997P4ZLJ/ref=cm_sw_r_awdo_RQNWENYC9QHS94R194JZ Join this channel as a way of supporting it: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3A3SRHOzmQmQln30x5jTJA/join Discord - https://discord.gg/jG3qWyERey https://www.facebook.com/Theology.Unleashed https://www.patreon.com/theologyunleashed My other videos https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZF7SCps26MqLktOzHFUTFf3gYVLUn3o3
