Matt Swaim, Ken Hensley and Kenny Burchard continue their series on Dei Verbum, the Second Vatican Council's document on Divine Revelation. How does God reveal his Word to humanity? How did the Holy Spirit and the human authors of Scripture collaborate to transmit the message of salvation? By what means has this revelation been preserved and handed down? And how does the Catholic understanding of all of this compare to the Protestant worldviews that Matt, Ken and Kenny were formed in?

Matt Swaim, Ken Hensley and Kenny Burchard continue their series on Dei Verbum, the Second Vatican Council's document on Divine Revelation. What does it mean to say that Jesus is the Word of God made flesh? And how does that inform the way that Catholics approach the reading and proclamation of Sacred Scripture? Matt, Ken, and Kenny discuss the similarities and differences between this approach and the way they themselves thought about the Word of God as Evangelical Protestants.

Many are familiar with the fact that the Catholic Church does not hold to the Reformation doctrine of "sola Scriptura."

But what *does* the Catholic Church teach about God's Word?

Matt Swaim, Ken Hensley and Kenny Burchard begin a new series unpacking "Dei Verbum," the Catholic Church's official document on Divine Revelation from the Second Vatican Council. They begin by looking at the historical climate leading up to the council in the early 1960's, and how that provided a new opportunity for the Church to re-articulate its understanding of how God speaks to His people.

As former Evangelical pastors, Ken and Kenny share how reflecting on this period in Catholic history has helped them to better appreciate what the Church has to say about the Bible and the nature of divine revelation.

Kenny Burchard continues to share with Matt Swaim and Ken Hensley the story of his journey to the Catholic Faith. When Kenny, who had been a Pentecostal pastor, told some friends he was considering becoming Catholic, he was asked why he'd want to join a church that had gone through so many scandals. For Kenny, this was a question that hit close to home, because every Christian group he'd ever been involved with had gone through scandal after scandal, and split after split. And given his experience of those heartbreaking realities, especially as a former Protestant pastor, it was something he had certainly thought about when considering the Catholic Church.

Kenny Burchard continues to share with Matt Swaim and Ken Hensley the story of his journey to the Catholic Faith. As Kenny discovered more and more divisions among Christians, he became increasingly unsettled by them. He and his wife got into ministry together in the Pentecostal world, but their experience of everything from Christian radio to Christian bookstores and more overloaded them -- was it even possible to know which take on Christianity was the correct one? Could there ever truly be Christian unity? More episodes and resources: https://www.chnetwork.org

Kenny Burchard continues to share with Matt Swaim and Ken Hensley the story of his journey to the Catholic Faith.

As Kenny tried to find his way in his new life as a Christian, the question of where he fit among fellow believers became front and center.

He started to realize that there were lots of different interpretations of Scripture, and lots of different potential voices to follow.

He began to wonder: with all the options out there, what kind of Christian was he?
