What does it mean to believe in the Church? In this stirring episode, we unpack the fourth line of the Apostles’ Creed: “I believe in the holy catholic Church.” From early church history to modern-day hospice visits, this episode explores what it means to trust in Christ’s messy, beautiful Bride. 

We address:

•  Why Protestants say “catholic” (with a small c)
•  The historical and theological roots of Church unity and holiness
•  Modern heresies that disconnect salvation from community
•  A powerful real-life story of Communion in a nursing home
•  A new metaphor comparing denominations to military branches

 Whether you’ve been hurt by the Church or you’re wondering if it still matters, this episode is a heartfelt call to see the Church as Christ sees her.
