In this podcast episode, James and Dan discuss divine revelation through the lens of Vatican II's "Dei Verbum," focusing on how God reveals Himself gradually, culminating in the Incarnation. They emphasize the Church's role in preserving and interpreting Scripture alongside Tradition, highlighting the need for contextual understanding and the guidance of the Magisterium. The importance of integrating the Old Testament with the New is discussed, showing the continuity in God's plan of salvation. They advocate for active scripture engagement through practices like Lectio Divina to deepen one's relationship with God. The episode concludes with a call to embrace God's will, even amidst fear, trusting in the peace and fulfillment it brings.
