On December 6, 2017 and the Feast of Saint Nicholas, Dcn Mike Beauvais, in the first part of the show, was joined by Robert Rodgers of Mighty in the Land Ministries, who shared a captivating testimony of when his wife and four children were taken from him fourteen years ago. Robert Rodgers was in Waco this week to speak at an Advent reflection service at St. Jerome Catholic Church. In the second part of the show, Gary Michuta, author of Why Catholic Bibles are Bigger and The Case for the Deuterocanon, discussed the history of the Bible with Dcn Mike, specifically the controversies surrounding the Deuterocanon, which is a certain collection of books that have overtime been taken out of Protestant Bibles. The overarching themes of this conversation were the steadfast nature of the Catholic Church's Sacred Tradition, the inconsistencies of Martin Luther and other Protestants' positions regarding the books of the Bible, and the continuity between the Old Testament and New Testament that is achieved through the inclusion of the Deuterocanon. Enjoy the show, like RED-C Catholic Radio on Facebook, and follow us on Twitter at @REDCRadio.
