Church History for Chumps
We're not your grandfather's church history podcast. But we'd also really appreciate it if he still listened.
Saints, heretics, councils...and the occasional crazy stuff. We have fun.

Leo the Great VS. Attila the Hun: At the Mercy of Giants
In the 5th Century, the Western Roman Empire is on its last leg.
Riddled with internal conflict, external threats, and even theological disputes tearing at the fabric of the Church, Rome has seen better days. And the great shadow of the Huns looms larger and larger as days go by.
This leads to one of the most engaging (and unexpected) encounters in church history: the frail and elderly Bishop of Rome face to face with the bloodthirsty tyrant of the Hunnic Empire.
Also, John and Tommy talk about why there was no episode last week, but why that's okay, because cool godly guys staying bros is more important.
