Needed!

Really good info. We need more podcasts like this. Audio is a little tough, gets really loud and quiet. Other than that, great job!

10/10!

Former “Cradle Catholic,” who has also become a Baptist here! I LOVE the episodes on the papacy, and early church doctrine. Church History Really Does Matter! I’m wondering if you guys could do a podcast on the additional books in the Catholic Bible? THANK YOU! - Lauren

It does matter ……

Fellas do their homework…. Listening helps me to understand that today’s church controversies are seldom truly novel or unique. ‘Same as it ever was’ - Talking Heads
