In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by veteran Catholic apologist Tom Nash to talk about the biblical basis for the Catholic Church. How can we use the Bible to explain the origins of the Catholic Church?
We dig into apostolic succession, the centrality of the Mass, Jesus' desire for Christian unity in John 17 (and how to accomplish this), and some of the Church-dividing problems with the doctrine of Sola Scriptura. Plus much, much more.
Tom is a veteran apologist with a lot to say and this episode is absolutely packed to the rafters.
For more from Tom check out his book To Whom Shall We Go? from Emmaus Road Publishing and visit Catholic Answers to see his decades worth of content and contributions.
