Ep. #211 - Taking the Sacraments Seriously w/ Michael Gormley

What are the sacraments? Why do Catholics add sacraments to the simple faith of the New Testament? Do sacraments constitute an earning of salvation? How does a new ITC document shed light on these ideas? Michael Gormley joins us to discuss these topics. The Classical Theism Podcast aims to defend Catholic Christian ideas in conversation. With the help of various guests, I defend three pillars of the Catholic Christian worldview: (1) the God of classical theism exists, (2) Jesus is our Messiah and Lord, and (3) He founded the Catholic Church. We place a strong emphasis on the first pillar, defending classical theism, drawing upon the work of Thomistic philosopher Dr. Edward Feser and many others.
