Most recently by Anna Hitchings, a single Catholic writer living in Sydney, Australia. In this episode, we dig into this claim with […]

Or, “Why did Jesus stick his fingers in the deaf dude’s ears? The theological reason behind the most famous wet-willie.” During the run of the Gospeled Boldly podcast, I used Facebook Live to record an “open” message to Pr. Eric Brown on its Facebook page.
