Are you tired of all the confusion in the Catholic Church? So was I! For this reason, I decided to intensely study the Catholic Magisterium in order to discern between what people say about the Catholic Church vs. what it actually says and teaches. If you are a confused Catholic, or are discerning becoming a Catholic, Reason & Theology offers you an in-depth examination of the situation in the Catholic Church that will help make sense of the confusion.

[dylanrunner]

Can we get Alex to sing some Byzantine chants? He sounds like he has the perfect voice for it

[CommonSenseChrist]

Love you Father Chris! The story of Blessed Theodore Romzha is inspiring. Thank you so much, God bless you guys, especially the very revered Father Christ.

"the church is an extension of the incarnation" what a profound truth

[JohnLeonard-heep]

Thank you for this witness. The suffering goes to my heart. It is important to remember the suffering of our peoples in the past. It continues everywhere even today. If we forget we can lose our way.

[caveatvenditor]

Thank you for having this wonderful priest, Father Chris. His testimony give us a good understanding from the Byzantine Catholic priest how important the full communion with the current successor of St. Peter is.

[Elias_EH]

You are doing amazing Job.
May our Lord and Lady bless you.
thank u

Hello Michael!
About an Eastern Saint having the stigmata: Saint Mary of Jesus Crucified (Mariam Bouardy), a Carmelite nun, a Melkite, born in the Holy Land. Entered religious life in France, even if she entered a Latin monastery, she always remained Melkite, and according to the sisters was allergic to Latin, that she could never learn it. Founded monastery in India, and later on in Bethlehem, where she died. Feastday today: August 25.

Great episode. It would be interesting to know more about the Soviet-ROC relations and how Orthodoxy was weaponized against Catholics and other Christians.

[nycetume]

Super educational. What an eye opener of a show. Much appreciated!

How to spell the Byzantine Martyrs names....

Romzha - Hopko - Gojdic(h)

Thankyou, I'll look forward to the new book by Fr on Church History being published. I absolutely Love reading Church history and this gap needs to be filled. Also, seeing him again on R&T 👍

+Archbishop Procyk was my parish priest at St. John’s cathedral for 22 years. He told me a story, being a young priest in the 60’s was sent to Slovakia to take bibles, vestments etc to the underground church. He knew he was being watched by KGB. He left earlier then he was scheduled to.

[AnthonyRodriguezNYC]

This episode I really enjoyed, you don't really see many Catholics who have a media presence go over other the other Churches in Catholicism.

[tuikrhz]

Michael please explain why this group of Christians are called Byzantine Catholics.
