56 min - Is Sirach Scripture? Understanding the Deuterocanonical Debate
Episode 119: Year C – 8th Sunday of Ordinary Time
In today’s episode, there are four details that we focus on, each of which has some relevance to apologetical discussions. The first one comes from the second reading, which is taken from 1 Corinthians 15:54-58. The relevant apologetical topic is the bodily nature of Jesus’ resurrection. The other three details all come from the Gospel reading, which is taken from Luke 6:39-45. However, one detail directly corresponds to the first reading, which is taken from Sirach 27:4-7. The relevant topics for apologetics are the question of what we can and cannot judge, the role good works play in relation to our salvation, and the Deuterocanonical status of Sirach.

1 hr 19 min - How Reliable Are the Gospels?
Episode 117: Year C – 6th Sunday of Ordinary Time
In today’s episode, we focus on a total of two details in the readings for this upcoming 6th Sunday of Ordinary Time. The first is found in the second reading, which is taken from 1 Corinthians 15:12, 16-20. The related topic is the historical credibility of the early Christian claim that Jesus rose from the dead. The second detail is found in the Gospel reading, which is taken from Luke 6:17, 20-26. The related apologetical topic is the historical reliability of the Gospels in general.
