Dive deep into the mysteries of faith with Joe Heschmeyer, celebrated author and podcaster, in this episode recorded live at SEEK in Salt Lake City. Together, we explore the transformation of afterlife concepts from the Old Testament to the New Testament through Christ’s resurrection, and delve into the pivotal role of Peter in establishing the Church’s foundation in Rome, as detailed in Joe’s book, “Pope Peter.”

Further enriching this episode is a comparative analysis of Catholic and Protestant views on the papacy, inspired by insights from Dr. Gavin Ortlund. We reflect on the historical and ecumenical impacts of councils like the Second Council of Lyon, fostering a dialogue that bridges doctrinal divides. The conversation also ventures into the challenges of engaging respectfully online, promoting a culture of reverence and gentle discourse in digital spaces.
