Title:
Hans J. Hillerbrand - "Patron Saint of the University" (April 22, 1990)
Description:

  • Like Thomas, we have a propensity to want the comfort of certainty before believing. However, this is not often out life works. Life always involves risk. Yet, what Thomas also teaches us is that doubt it a deeply human and Christian thing, and it is intimately bound up with faith. (Abstract created by Duke Divinity School staff.)

  • Sermon start time: (Part 1) 36:14. Sermon end time: (Part 1) 57:50.

  • Key quotation: “You cannot have faith without doubt. And Thomas is our patron saint. And his special favor to us is his message that to doubt is human and profoundly Christian as well.”
