Episode 3: The Approach to God: The Slave, the Servant, and the Son

The Mind of the Early Church Podcast

“The early Church identified three motivations people had when approaching God. They called these motivations by the names of Slave, Servant, and Son. Each one of these motivations had certain psychological characteristics and ways of thinking. The Church considered the motivation of fear in approaching God to be an approach to God in faith, but one that was less desirable than the motivation of love. Further, their insights engage well with modern behavioral, cognitive, and developmental psychology.”
