Back from our hiatus, LTTW returns!
In the present Christian climate, many questions exist about Protestant Christians' relationship with the Roman Catholic Church.
We asked Dr. Chris Castaldo, a former Roman Catholic and expert on Protestant/Catholic relations to speak about what divides and unites us.
When should we defer to tradition? When should we defer to Scripture?
What does it mean to "swim the Tiber?"
Chris Castaldo (BA, Moody Bible Institute; MDiv, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary; PhD, London School of Theology) was raised on Long Island, New York. For the last seventeen years, he has served in the Chicagoland area, at College Church in Wheaton and then at Wheaton College where he directed the Ministry of Gospel Renewal, a ministry devoted to equipping evangelicals for constructive engagement with Catholic friends and loved ones. Since November of 2014, Chris has served as Lead Pastor of New Covenant Church, Naperville.
