In this episode of Author to Author, Dr. Cynthia Toolin-Wilson interviews Dr. Rafael Gonzalez on his book True Catholic Doctrinal Development: The Modal Distinction of Francisco Suárez and its Christological-Theological Consequences (August 19, 2023)

In this book, Dr. Rafael Gonzalez discusses Suárez’ modal distinction, which seems to satisfy both medieval Thomism (and neo-Thomism) and the newer pejoratively called “la nouvelle théologie” in their views of the distinction between nature and supernature, philosophy and theology. In other words, the traditional Scholastic theology and the more contemporary Ressourcement theology are synthesized by Suárezian modes, which emerges from the synthesis that is Christ himself.
