This show will detail the biographies and interesting facts of the Papacy of Rome. It will start in the beginning, but will not go straight through. There will be many side tracks and detours along the way. We will investigate the backstreets of the Papacy where the tour normally doesn't go. Support this show
Episode 99 The Late Byzantine Papacy and Maximus the Confessor Description: Today, we are going to wrap up the so called Byzantine era of the papacy. This was a time when nearly every pope was eastern in origin and owed his job to the emperor in Constantinople. Things will change dramatically for the popes after this time. We also see some interesting stories, like a bishop of England who came from Tarsus of all places. This is a really transformative, exciting and important time for the Popes of Rome and Christian Church!

Episode 98: Stubborn Wills and Natures Description: Today we are going back to talking about the monotheletism controversy. This was a very difficult time politically and religiously for papacy. The popes had to balance their relationship with the emperors in Constantinople and their local political position along with making sure their theology was correct. It was not an easy time to be pope!

Episode 92: The Q Source with Garry Stevens Description: Today, I am joined once again by the indomitable Garry Stevens of the History in the Bible Podcast. In this episode, we tackle one of the most challenging aspects of the New Testament, the Q Source. Q is what might be called the “missing link” of the Gospels. It could very well be the source or even the document that ties many of the loose ends and questions raised in the typology of the New Testament. I’m very excited about this topic!

Episode 90: The History of Italy with Marco Cappelli Description: I am really excited for today’s conversation with Marco Cappelli of the Storia d’Italia podcast. Marco’s podcast is a history of Italy, but in the Italian language. Our conversation is in English today as I don’t speak Italian, but Marco speaks excellent English. As you well know, I have a hard enough time in English as it is! Our conversation today is a wrap up of many of the topics we’ve discussed in the History of the Papacy Podcast. I think this is an excellent episode for the first episode of the year 2020. We get to look back at the topics we’ve talked about in the podcast, but with someone who can give us an on the ground perspective, an Italian perspective on the important events where Papal and Italian history intersected.
