A few months ago, we printed Fr. Dave Nix’s critical warning about the series The Chosen. In a media world saturated by anti-Christian messages, it is natural and tempting to gravitate toward a show that deals with the topic of salvation or purports to celebrate the gospel. Many viewers have reported that the show brought […]

There are a lot of differences between Catholicism and Protestantism. For example, we disagree about the pope, the saints, the sacraments, indulgences, and Purgatory. But arguably the biggest difference between us has to do with our beliefs about Mary. For most Protestants, she was just a woman who lived 2,000 years ago. Sure, she was […]

There is a temptation for us Catholics to think that there cannot be any biblical evidence against the papacy. Sure, non-Catholics can argue that there is no scriptural evidence for it, but how could there possibly be any evidence against it? It’s not like the New Testament is going to straight up say, “Peter was […]

In my last article for Catholic Exchange, I looked at one of the key differences between Catholic and Protestant understandings of salvation, and this time, I want to look at another way that we differ from our separated brethren on this important issue.

For Catholics, it is the former, and for most Protestants, it is the latter. However, that is not the only way our […]
