In this video, I'm joined by Dr. Ephraim Radner to discuss his the paradox of church divisions, ecumenism, and more. 

Dr. Radner is one of the foremost experts on ecumenism and church divisions in the West. He has been publishing, teaching, and researching in this area longer than I've been alive, and I was delighted to get to learn from his wisdom.

In this video, we discuss what it means for the church to be divided, how that is possible, and what we should do about it.

In this video, I'm joined by Dr. Steven Nemes to discuss his case for liberal Protestantism. 

Dr. Nemes spent years wondering if he needed to become Catholic and leave his Protestant upbringing. He ended up rejecting the claims of the Catholic church. However, he did not stop there. He realized that the nature of his disagreements with Roman Catholicism extended beyond the institution of the church centered in Rome. These disagreements went to the core of catholic Christianity as a whole - in other words, the majority of historical Christianity. This has led to his rejection of traditionalism, hierarchy, the Trinity, and the incarnation - all of which he has written on extensively. 

In this video, we discuss what Liberal Protestantism is, my objections to it, whether it can be called Christianity, and Dr. Nemes' views on the future of liberal theology.

After growing up as a passionate Christian, Jared Smith became an atheist in his 20s. And yet, come Sunday morning, you'll probably find him in church. 

In this video, Jared Smith and I talk about his popular, "Atheist Church Audit" series in which he visits churches ranging from Catholic cathedrals to sketchy cults and shares his perspective as someone who has walked away form the faith but retains a deep respect for Christianity and the church. 

If you're looking for a debate, you won't find it here. Instead, you'll find a wide-ranging conversation about church, deconstruction, and much more.

Love the beauty of Eastern Orthodoxy but believe in papal infallibility? Perhaps Eastern Catholicism is the best of both worlds.

That's the idea that we explore in this interview where I'm joined by Eastern Catholic priest, Fr. Jason Charron. We cover the history of Eastern Catholicism, what it means to switch rites, and much more.

Stay tuned till the end when we discuss the pilgrimage/shrine that Fr. Jason is endeavoring to create in the U.S.
