  • The Troubles: Religious (well, kinda religious) Turmoil in Northern Ireland
    2024/05/31

    Send us a Text Message.

    In many parts of the world, the question of whether you're a Catholic or Protestant means a lot more than if you submit to the Pope, or how you feel about Martin Luther.

    One such place is Northern Ireland. For generations, the people of Ireland and the United Kingdom have been steeped in a conflict about religious freedom, civil rights, and discrimination. Tragically, this period of tension boiled over between the 1960's and 1990's, an era of bloodshed and violence known as the Troubles.

    Today, we are joined by our fantastic guest Oisin Feeney (don't worry, he'll tell you how to pronounce it), host of The Troubles Podcast. Join us as we're led into the vast history of the Troubles by someone with the accent to prove he knows what he's talking about.

    In other news, we're going to use this special episode to close out our season, so we'll be going on a break for a few weeks.

    See you guys in Season 3!

  • Thomas Bramwell Welch: Why Do Some Churches Use Grape Juice?
    2024/05/24

    Send us a Text Message.

    Have you ever wondered why some churches use grape juice for communion, while others insist on using wine instead?

    The answer is more complicated than you think. Or it might be less complicated, I don't know, I feel like you're probably pretty smart.

    Either way, join us as we discuss Thomas Welch, the Prohibition Era, and the impact still felt by churches today.

  • Saint Dymphna & the Town that Welcomes Outsiders
    2024/05/17

    Send us a Text Message.

    Church history isn't always as, well, historically reliable as we wish it was. Sometimes the stories of saints and heroes tend to blur the lines between fact and fiction.

    That would be the case of Saint Dymphna, an Irish-Catholic runaway who sought refuge from her violent father in a small town in Belgium. What's interesting though, is that whether or not her story is more than folklore, this European community is still honoring the legacy of her story: for hundreds of years, its residents have opened their homes to outsiders suffering from mental and cognitive disabilities.

    Join John and Tom as we talk through the story of Saint Dymphna and the town of Geel, Belgium. Also Tom humblebrags about graduating seminary. What a nerd.
