#TRINITY #MONTHEISM #CHRISTIANITY This presentation titled “The Monarchy of the Father“ by Dr. Beau Branson, a prominent Orthodox Christian philosopher, aims to address unitarianism and critiques of the Trinity using the long neglected but Traditional doctrine of the monarchy of the Father. The extremely potent patristic evidence is presented in this talk to evidence the strong monarchical view in the Fathers. This will be a multipart series (1 upload per week) which will hopefully help Christians in framing the Trinity for apologetics against unitarian faiths, Islam, Judaism etc...

His Ph.D (2014) was completed at the University of Notre Dame, directed by Richard Cross, where he specialized in Philosophical Theology, Metaphysics, and Ancient and Hellenistic Philosophy.
