In this episode, we interview Joshua's sister, Nancy Charles, who also serves as Eternal Christendom's Director of Operations. She was miraculously converted to the Catholic Faith out of the LGBTQ+ lifestyle, drug abuse, and multiple suicide attempts.

Now she is exposing the lies about so-called "LGBTQ+ Catholics," and explains the Catholic Church's answer to these lies: the call to find our FULL identity not in our temptations and sins, but in Christ.

Today we are inaugurating a new mini-series: the "Eucharist Snapshot." Like the "Papal Snapshot," the Eucharist Snapshot will go document-by-document to prove the ancient roots of Catholic belief about the Eucharist.

This first "Eucharist Snapshot" will cover the Didache, perhaps the most ancient Christian document outside the Bible, and the incredibly Catholic things it says about the Eucharist as a sacrifice.

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.

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.

In this latest Papal Snapshot (our first of two episodes this week), we cover a letter from St. Jerome in which he describes papal authority over local church councils both east and west. More than 1,600 years later, this continues to match the same Catholic Church!

In light of recent government announcements about "disclosure" (the process of revealing the existence of "alien" life and "non-human intelligence") we host an in-depth discussion on the UAP and "alien" phenomenon with our friend, colleague, and Catholic expert Daniel O'Connor.

This is our very first livestream episode of Eternal Christendom.

In this episode, we welcome biblical scholar and protestant convert Dr. Matthew Thomas to discuss the essential role of the Catholic Church in compiling the canon of Scripture, primarily the Old Testament.

Dr. Thomas wrote the fantastic introductory essay on the canon of Scripture in the recently published Ignatius Catholic Study Bible: Old and New Testaments, edited by Dr. Scott Hahn and Dr. Curtis Mitch.

This is episode 73 in honor of the 73 books of Holy Scripture!

Dr. Thomas is the Associate Professor of Biblical Studies, and the Theology Department Chair at the Dominican School of Philosophy and Theology in Berkley, CA. You can read more of his bio here: https://dspt.edu/matthew-thomas/

Today, 1,307 years ago, St. Pope Gregory II commissioned St. Boniface to evangelize Germany and bring it into the fold of the Catholic Church. In this Papal Snapshot, we uncover what his commission reveals about the ancient Church's very Catholic beliefs about the papacy.
