In light of this week's 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, we interview Catholic scholar and historian Charles Coulombe.

We consider some of these issues on this auspicious anniversary.As much as we got into in this interview, there are many more issues yet to explore on this topic.

In this fascinating and profound episode, we dive into the deep mysteries of St. John's Gospel with John Johnson, the founder of Patmos Hosting and the Albertus Magnus Institute (and Joshua Charles's sponsor into the Catholic Church). Johnson reveals that St. John was likely a student of Aristotle, and used his most powerful rhetorical techniques to communicate the most sublime truths about Christ, the Eucharist, the betrayal of Judas, and the authority of Peter.You can read John Johnson's biography here: https://magnusinstitute.org/senior-fellows/john-johnson/VISIT OUR WEBSITEhttps://eternalchristendom.com/BECOME A PATRON OF THE GREAT TRADITIONAs a non-profit, you can support our mission with a tax-deductible gift.

In this latest Papal Snapshot (our second episode this week), we dive into St. Boniface's oath of obedience to the Pope. St. Boniface was appointed by St. Pope Gregory II to be "apostle to the Germans," and brought the Catholic Faith to Germany. In this commission, St. Boniface understood the obedience he owed to St. Peter's successor in Rome as the chief authority in the Church on earth.VISIT OUR WEBSITEhttps://eternalchristendom.com/BECOME A PATRON OF THE GREAT TRADITIONAs a non-profit, you can support our mission with a tax-deductible gift.
