Catholics often accuse Protestants of following mere private interpretations of Sacred Scripture. But the Catholic Church has no official list of authoritative Bible interpretations. What’s the point of having an infallible Church if it does not (cannot?) produce an infallible commentary on Scripture? Doesn’t that make the Catholic Church’s Bible interpretation just as fallible as…
Do we know what Jesus actually said? Even if we do, do we really know what He meant? And why should we even care? These are the questions covered in this discussion with Gary Michuta, author of “Gospel Truth: How We Can Know What Christ Taught” Get the book HERE!
At Jesus’ trial, Pilate asked, “What is truth” At another time, Jesus said he was the Truth (Jn. 14:6) and today Christianity claims to be true. But can we know truth? Don’t illusions and hallucinations prove we do not know reality? In this video, we’ll take a look at what the truth is and how…
We’ve all heard the Catholic claim that the Protestant reliance on Sola Scriptura (the “Bible Alone”) has only caused division in the Church and heresy to become acceptable – but is there a deeper, more important issue? In his book “The Obscurity of Scripture: Disputing Sola Scriptura and the Protestant Notion of Biblical Perspicuity,” author…

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…

Rather, I am just pointing out some distinctions and categories that are often confused or missed at the popular level. Also, due to non-standard…
Her is a talk I did for a series on “The Way, the Truth, and the Life” on knowing Truth at St. Joseph’s Catholic Church.
My first book (originally published with Moody Press) has been updated and rebooted for the 2020’s! Ignatius Press reached out to me and asked about redoing this book for my Catholic audience, and it gave me a chance to include some material previously cut by the original publisher as well as add new insights from…
The Bible says that if a prophet’s predictions about the future do not come true, he is not from God (Deuteronomy 13 & 18). Was Jesus a false prophet? Some say he was because his prediction about when he would return in the Olivet Discourse (Matthew 24 cf. Mark 13; Luke 21) turned out to…
When St. Thomas Aquinas wrote his great Summa Theologiae, he listed only two objections to the existence of God (the problem of evil and the apparent ability of science to explain everything), even though he tried to list at least three objections to each of his views. During my doctoral studies, however, I came across…
