About this video
Runtime: 5 minsRowan Williams discusses the Hellenization of Christian doctrine. Williams refutes the notion that early Christian doctrine was merely shaped by imported Greek ideas. While early Christians engaged with Greek philosophy, they transformed it into a distinctively Christian framework. For instance, the development of the Trinity reflects a fusion of Christian principles with Greek philosophy, generating new vocabulary and ideas, challenging classical thinkers. Christian thinkers innovated within their context, contributing to shifts in worldview towards scientific exploration and divine order in nature.
