Gospel Simplicity Podcast

In this video, I'm joined by once again by Dr. Barnabas Aspray, a man who has quickly become one of my favorite Catholic thinkers and a dear friend. Barney has a knack both for asking penetrating questions and giving thoughtful answers that go beyond polemics. In this special in-person episode, we talk extensively St. John Henry Newman's theory of doctrinal development, my concerns about infallibility, sola scriptura, and whether Protestant ecclesiology works. Check out Barney's podcast: http://faithatthefrontiers.com/Barney's conversion story: https://amzn.to/3YybxKqSupport the channel:Patreon: https://patreon.com/gospelsimplicityPayPal: https://paypal.me/gospelsimplicitySupport the show

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.Learn more about the shrine: https://holyprotectionshrine.orgSupport the channel:Patreon:   / gospelsimplicity  PayPal: https://paypal.me/gospelsimplicitySupport the show

Gavin Ortlund, Ph.D., a prominent theologian and host of Truth Unites on YouTube, delves into the essence of Protestantism as a renewal movement. He highlights that it’s rooted in scripture, not merely a rejection of other traditions. The discussion covers the importance of church unity, the critique of dogmas like icon veneration, and the Assumption of Mary. Ortlund encourages contemporary Protestants to reconnect with their rich historical roots, emphasizing personal faith and the assurance provided by the Holy Spirit in navigating diverse denominational identities.
