wow, what a spectacular class. Dr. Catherine Pickstock, you are much more than a professor, you have the gift of making people understand something as complex as this subject is. I loved your explanation and considerations to the point where I felt enlightened by the unfading light and reached the point of feeling peace amidst the chaos of endless questioning. I'm grateful to God for having met you on youtube. Thank you very much for this explanation I learned and grew a lot in my soul. I'm from Brazil in São Paulo and I don't speak English but I understood everything I needed. Thank you very much.

Absolutely beautiful...I come from an Eastern tradition but could appreciate this as here faith is just in that waiting and longing to 'know' form or formless.

Very beautiful and profound discourse pointing to God's immanence, or gentleness or beauty. But there is also God's transcendence, or majesty. So, logically, God is everywhere and nowhere. Again, the mind is at a loss, but God is still there. Truly, this seems to me, I say this with utmost humility, the gist of this saint's approach.

This was just so spectacular. Thank you so very much Dr. Catherine Pickstock. We studied St Anselm as part of my A-Level course and this shows that the A-Level goes into quite little detail of God being ‘that than which nothing great can be conceived’. I particularly loved your thinking of all faith is faith linked to understanding God. I feel I have been enlightened! Thank you so very much.
