Saint Life: Thomas Aquinas (7 March) ~ How St. Thomas Aquinas Refutes Modernism and Atheism

About this sermon

St. Thomas Aquinas is one of the greatest minds in the history of the Church. Known as the Angelic Doctor, his intellect, holiness, and philosophical clarity shaped Catholic theology for centuries. From his childhood charity to the poor… to the miraculous Angelic Cincture of Chastity… to dictating multiple theological works at once… the life of St. Thomas Aquinas reveals a saint whose mind seemed almost angelic. In this video we explore: • The astonishing holiness of St. Thomas as a child • The miracle of the flowers when his father confronted him • His imprisonment for joining the Dominicans • The angelic cincture that preserved his purity • His extraordinary intellect and humility • His mystical encounters with Christ and the Apostles • Why modern philosophy rebelled against Thomism • How St. Thomas refutes atheism and modern philosophical errors St. Thomas Aquinas remains the Doctor of the Church whose philosophy continues to defend the Catholic faith against modern confusion. As many popes have affirmed, Thomism is the philosophical foundation that protects Catholic theology from modernism. If you want to understand reality clearly, defend the faith, and deepen your Catholic intellectual life — go to Thomas.
