Belief in Divine Providence in the most basic and literal sense, is just the belief that God provides. In the context of philosophy of history, it is typically understood as the notion that history itself somehow is, or manifests, the unfolding of God's 'plan.' In this episode we will discuss this concept as it developed in the Christian tradition, drawing mainly from the work of Etienne Gilson (The Spirit of Medieval Philosophy), and consider it in relation to both its Islamic and modern iterations.
