Theology Unplugged

In episode 46 of "Through Theology in a Year," we explore the Eastern Orthodox Church's perspective on its place in Christian history. Presented from the viewpoint of Eastern Orthodoxy, this session delves into how the Orthodox Church sees itself as the preserver of the true, unbroken apostolic faith. We'll discuss key historical events, including the Great Schism of 1054, the significance of the Ecumenical Councils, and the concept of Theosis.

In episode 45 of "Through Theology in a Year," we take a deep dive into the Roman Catholic Church's perspective on its historical role as the One True Church. We'll explore how Roman Catholicism views itself as the essential authority that defines the Gospel, determines the canon of Scripture, and holds the Christian faith together. The Church sees itself as the timeline and foundation upon which the entirety of Christian doctrine rests. Without this unifying authority, Catholicism argues, Christianity risks fragmentation and a lack of an official definition of the faith.

In episode 40 of "Conversations with Tad," we explore the Lord's Prayer through the lens of humility and authenticity before God. We discuss how God desires us to come before Him as our true selves, free from pretense or guardedness. However, sin acts as a barrier, preventing us from fully being ourselves in His presence. Through His grace, God calls us to confess our sins-not to condemn us, but to liberate us, allowing us to be our authentic selves before Him.

In this session of Conversations with Tad, we explored the challenges and awkwardness that sometimes come with prayer, and how Tad is progressing in his discipleship journey. We revisited the Lord's Prayer, focusing on the phrase "Give us this day our daily bread." We discussed how this phrase emphasizes bringing our daily needs before God, trusting Him for what we need today without worrying about tomorrow. Jesus' teaching that each day has enough trouble of its own was central to our conversation, reminding us to stay focused on the present.
