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.

Church History for Chumps
Origen: The Forgotten Church Father
Imagine if you were a really cool guy.
Like, a really cool guy. You helped all your friends know Jesus better. Wrote all these interesting theological ideas. Came up with all these fun words in Greek. Everybody liked you.
And then in 500 years, someone read your journal and became a heretic, so now everyone hates you. And even now, everyone hates you. They think you're the worst.
That's what happened to Origen. Okay, not really. It's a little more complicated than that. But that's how we'll start.
Join J, T, and T, as we discuss the mystery of church history's most elusive church father.
Also everyone makes fun of John for stuttering literally one time because apparently it's hilarious.
