  • Further Up and Further In (#409)
    Nov 26 2025

    [DONATE WITH PAYPAL] What if the Christianity you’ve always known is only the shallow end of a vast, ancient ocean? In this candid, burrito-fueled conversation (yes, really), Greg and Ed the Protestant unpack the longing that pulled Greg all the way home to the Catholic Church: a restless hunger to go “further up and further in,” deeper into the heart of the Church. From a worship leader who couldn’t imagine Catholics have music or preaching, to standing in the ruins of a medieval monastery and realizing modern evangelicalism is downstream from something far older and richer, this episode is for anyone who’s ever sensed there must be more to Christianity than the last thirty years of praise choruses and fog machines. If you’ve ever wondered why some of us can’t stop swimming upstream toward the apostolic trunk of the Church—and why we can never swim back—pull up a chair (and maybe skip the head-sized burrito). Come further up, come further in!

  • Divine Mysteries: Logos, Christ, Pantoccrator, Returning King (#408)
    Nov 24 2025

    [DONATE WITH PAYPAL] In Part 3 of Divine Mysteries, Greg lets five explosive Scripture passages—John 1, Colossians 1, Philippians 2, Hebrews 1, and Revelation—paint the full portrait of the eternal Son, from Creator-Logos to Returning Conqueror. Then he explores how the Christian East’s majestic Pantocrator and the West’s tender Sacred Heart are two complementary lenses on the same Chalcedonian Christ. Perfect for Western Catholics who need awe and Ortho-curious guys who love the Divine Liturgy: Rome never lost the East’s fire. Discover why a Pantocrator icon might be exactly what your prayer corner is missing.
