What does the Church mean when it says that Christians can be “divinized”? Father John Gavin joins us to unpack a provocative teaching from St. Athanasius found in the Catechism: through the Holy Spirit, we become “communicants in the divine nature.” We explore the mystery of the Incarnation, our adoption as sons and daughters of God, and why divinization does not mean that we literally become God. Drawing on Scripture and the Church Fathers, Father Gavin explains how Christ’s full divinity and our baptism open the way for us to share intimately in the divine life.
