Purgatory Is For Real: An Interview with Dr. Karlo Broussard 59:31

cách đây 2 ngày trước59:31

59:31

In this episode, I interview Dr. Karlo Broussard about his book, Purgatory Is for Real: Good News About the Afterlife for Those Who Aren’t Perfect Yet. Dr. Broussard presents his case for purgatory as a biblical and historical doctrine, arguing that it reflects both God’s justice and mercy. We discuss key topics from his book, including scriptural foundations for purgatory, its presence in other religious traditions, and responses to common Protestant objections. Dr. Broussard also explains the role of suffering, prayers for the dead, and why he sees purgatory as a hopeful rather than a fearful reality. Join us for a thought-provoking conversation as we examine these claims and their implications for Christian belief. 🔹 Listen now! 🔹 Here is a link to Dr. Broussard's Book: https://www.amazon.com/Purgatory-Real-About-Afterlife-Perfect/dp/168357186X/ref=sr_1_1?crid=21UOGYB1G69R5&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.q2FWltv_7mN--dDyO5lk7NwfkyJYP-UoQzfbXzMlieEWBXwvcic7tEqo0pwYA4XY7fBJ0HjUI6TlWBoFwiDwXNbo3NXrHhklVYa3YMVpaxiIoCEH7Pv1QrE6CFz7q08v.AZLHKkkLVh-0V991Kp4DtsRlgKEeNErEXRRPfbtLPDU&dib_tag=se&keywords=purgatory+is+for+real+karlo+broussard&qid=1740622991&sprefix=purgatory+is+for+real+%2Caps%2C120&sr=8-1 If you'd like to donate to our ministry or be a monthly partner that receives newsletters and one on one discussions with Dr. Boyce, here's a link: https://give.tithe.ly/?formId=6381a2ee-b82f-42a7-809e-6b733cec05a7 #PurgatoryIsForReal #CatholicTheology #KarloBroussard #ChristianDoctrine #Apologetics #ChurchHistory #FaithAndReason…

Romephobia: Overcoming the Fear of Looking Too Catholic 34:39

cách đây 9 ngày trước34:39

34:39

In this episode, we explore a term I’m calling Romephobia —an unhealthy aversion to anything that looks, sounds, or is perceived as Roman Catholic. Many historic terms, ideas, and practices that were once broadly embraced by the ancient Church have, over time, been wrongly attributed solely to Rome. This fear has led many to abandon deeply rooted Christian traditions simply because they carry a “Catholic” association. Join us as we examine key theological concepts, liturgical practices, and historical terms that were once common across Christendom but have been unfairly labeled as exclusively Roman. From the use of “Eucharist” and “bishop” to beliefs about the Real Presence and apostolic succession, we’ll uncover how these elements belong to the historic Church, not just the Roman Church. Is it time to move past Romephobia and reclaim what rightfully belongs to the whole Church? Tune in as we separate historical fact from modern misconceptions.

Liturgy and the Canon: A Deeper Look at Sacred Texts 48:55

48:55

In this episode of Liturgy and the Canon: A Deeper Look at Sacred Texts , we explore the significance of understanding the early Church’s approach to biblical lists and how they shaped the canon of Scripture. I discuss why texts like 1 Clement , the Epistle of Barnabas , and the Shepherd of Hermas appeared in the manuscripts of early Christian communities and what this tells us about the development of the New Testament canon. We delve into the historical context of these writings, why they were revered by early Christians, and how their placement at the end of many early manuscripts reflects their influential, though ultimately non-canonical, status. Join me as we examine how early Christians discerned the sacred texts from the sacred traditions and how their liturgical practices contributed to the shaping of the Christian biblical tradition.

On this episode of FACTS, Stephen responds to criticism against Mark's Gospel, alleging that Mark inserted the wrong High Priest into the text when recounting 1 Samuel 21. Prominent scholars such as Bart Ehrman believe this to be an error and have admitted that this specific issue was the beginning of his departure from the faith. Stephen will demonstrate that it is an overreaction to this alleged problem and that there are many plausible explanations for using Abiathar in the text.
