About this listen

This episode challenges the popular claim that the Catholic Church “kept the Bible from the people,” arguing instead for a consistent pattern of access with fidelity. What if the usual narrative is missing something essential? Today we explore how access and authority relate, and why it matters more than ever, from the Vulgate’s vernacular origins, to William Tyndale, to a modern case study on why translation needs guardrails.
