Not ALL Good People go to Heaven

Episode Description from the Publisher

Today we’re diving into one of the most debated realms in Christian history: Purgatory. We’re going beyond pop culture clichés and fiery stereotypes to trace how the idea of a purifying afterlife evolved over thousands of years—from mystical visions and burned handprints to Dante’s iconic mountain and Martin Luther’s Reformation. Is Purgatory clearly laid out in Scripture, or is it a complex doctrine stitched together across centuries?
