What does Dwight Schrute's puzzling Secret Santa gift teach us about divine revelation and the limits of natural reason? In this episode from Great Catholic Book Club, Sadie breaks down a classic The Office moment to explore deep theological truths through sitcom storytelling. 🎬 Featuring: - A clever analogy from The Office Season 6, Episode 13 - How St. Thomas Aquinas viewed the human intellect - Why divine revelation is essential and not a “God of the gaps” - Catholic perspective on intellect, faith, and Scripture 💬 We’ll wrestle with how Dwight Schrute represents human reason, Michael Scott symbolizes divine revelation, and how even pop culture can illuminate truth. If you love Catholic theology, faith-based content, or funny theology, this video is for you! 💡 Want more media-inspired reflections on Scripture and Church teaching?
