This is a follow up to my video Could This Bible Verse Destroy Protestantism? With nearly 75,000 views, 4,500 likes, and over 3,000 comments at the time of this writing, it is by far the most popular video on my channel. But almost no one got it. Even after responding to hundreds and hundreds of…
Bjorn Andreas Bull-Hansen is a novelist and youtuber specializing in Viking culture, bush craft and even some political topics. I’ve enjoyed several of his outdoor videos and appreciated his generally conservative and moral outlook on life. Recently, however, Bull-Hansen turned from carving sticks and politics to religion – specifically Paganism. Now if he were just…
In support of the Catechism in a Year podcast with Fr. Mike Schmitz, Ascension Press – the publishers of the Great Adventure Catholic Bible – has released a new edition of the Catechism of the Catholic Church. The first of its kind, this beautiful edition has special “Foundations of Faith” contents and color coding that…
It may sound odd (or even blasphemous) to say that Jesus Christ is not a human person, but this is precisely true. The problem is that this is a very metaphysically precise statement and most people have not been introduced to the relevant philosophical distinctions required to make proper sense of it.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I’m joined by one of our favourite guests of all time, Dr. Douglas Beaumont, to talk about Evangelical Christian conversions to Catholicism.

Due to modern ailments, there are many today who cannot physically tolerate ingesting gluten or alcohol. How, then, can they receive our Lord’s body and blood in the Eucharist during Communion? There are two errors that come from misunderstanding the Church’s teachings on the Eucharist. On one end of the spectrum (especially among Protestants, but…
Here I have a discussion with my friend Karlo Broussard of Catholic Answers about his new book, “Meeting the Protestant Response” (a follow-up to his previous book, “Meeting the Protestant Challenge”). In this sequel, Karlo goes over numerous Protestant “comebacks” to Catholic claims based on Scripture, and we go over a few of them here.
Does Anything Follow from Sola Scriptura? In what follows I will show that it would not matter if a Catholic were to affirm the foundational Protestant principle of Sola Scriptura (“Scripture Alone”). In fact I will argue that nothing relevant to the Catholic/Protestant debate actually follows from Sola Scriptura at all. What Is Sola Scriptura?…
