Saint Gregory of Nyssa was a 4th century bishop and theologian, as well as the younger brother of St Basil the Great. As one of the "Cappadocian Fathers", Saint Gregory was among the most important theologians in Christian history, and his work continues to be influential today especially for Eastern Orthodox Christians. He was an eloquent defender of Christian truth against heresy, and a participant of the Second Ecunemical Council, which formulated the Nicene Creed as we know it today. In this episode, we read from a few of his works, such as Against Eunomius, On Perfection, and The Life of Moses.
