    Debunking Christmas Myths and Celebrating the Birth of Jesus w/ Dr. Michael Barber

    There are more Christmas myths than you may think, and in today’s episode, Dr. Barber debunks many of them while simultaneously revealing the true meaning of Christmas. Get Your Copy of “The True Meaning of Christmas”: https://ignatius.com/the-true-meaning-of-christmas-tmcp/ Was Christmas originally a pagan holiday? Were there three Wisemen, and were they kings or sorcerers? Did Mary know she was going to give birth to the Son of God? Do we know if December 25th is Jesus’ true birthday? Dr. Michael Barber joins Ben Eriksen as he answers these questions and many more based on his extensive research presented in his book “The True Meaning of Christmas.” Dr. Barber not only explains the history behind many Christmas traditions, but he also highlights the spiritual and moral underpinnings of these beloved celebrations. Take some time to learn more about Christmas this year so you can celebrate with a more grateful and grace-filled heart.

    Religious Liberty in America with Dr. Beckwith, Member of the Presidential Religious Liberty Commission

    Earlier this year, Dr. Francis Beckwith was appointed to a select board of scholars to advise the Trump administration on national efforts to protect and advance religious Liberty. Dr. Beckwith is a professor of philosophy and Church-State studies at Baylor University, and today he joins Mark Brumey to discuss religious liberty and Vatican II. The two examine “Dignitatis Humanae” and whether or not this declaration, this document, was a development or a departure from the Church’s stance on religious liberty. Dr. Beckwith explains the political role that the Church has played in history and its current place in modern politics. Finally, they discuss the challenges religious liberty faces today. This is a must-watch episode, not because of its depth of thought, but also because of its timeliness and relevance.   Dr. Beckwith has also written A Catholic Engagement with Latter-Day Saints.
