In this episode of The FACTS Podcast, we explore the life and legacy of St. Linus, the second Bishop of Rome and the immediate successor to St. Peter. Who was Linus, and what role did he play in shaping the early structure of the Church? We’ll examine the historical evidence surrounding his bishopric, his connection to Peter and Paul, and how his leadership helped solidify the emerging concept of the bishopric.
We’ll also consider how early church historians, including Irenaeus and Eusebius, viewed Linus’s role in the transition from apostolic authority to the early episcopal model. Join us as we uncover the story of St. Linus and his influence on the foundation of the Catholic Church.
