  • Light hearted, but informative and intelligent

    I enjoy this podcast so much! I’m a Pentecostal who is Anglican curious. The boys give so much information on doctrine and history of the Anglican Church as well as current events.

  • Incredible

    The podcast ties together church history and tradition in a way I’ve never heard before, combining Holy Scripture and Sacred Tradition in a clear, coherent way. The podcast has given me insight as well as a strong encouragement in what I believe and has even strengthened me in the Faith. With so much liberal theology being pushed down our throats, to be offered some clear non-biased information is a breath of fresh air. God bless!

  • Beware: ACNA isn’t a part of global Anglicanism

    I was really enjoying listening to this podcast until they linked female priests/bishops and homosexuality to the “anti-Christ”.

    I then did my research and realized that the ACNA (Anglican Church in North America) is a schismatic, right-wing church that is not officially recognized as a part of the global Anglican Communion.
