Episode Synopsis

In this week’s episode, we’re tackling a crucial question: What do we do with Rome, especially when it comes to tradition? From the veneration of Mary to the role of the sacraments, the Catholic Church has long upheld practices that go beyond what Scripture clearly teaches. But how did these traditions develop? And why did the Reformers push back so strongly?We’ll explore where Scripture and tradition collide, how the Reformers responded, and why the authority of God’s Word must remain central. In a world that often elevates heritage over truth, we’ll consider how holding fast to Scripture keeps us rooted in Christ, not in custom.Thanks for listening!Book Recommendations:What It Means To Be Protestant by Gavin Ortlund https://a.co/d/bV5m9PGAre We Together?: A Protestant Analyzes Roman Catholicism by R.C.
