Byzantine Catholicism Orthodox, Catholic, or both? In this video, we explore the fascinating and complex identity of the Byzantine Catholic Church. We delve into its theology, liturgical traditions, and historical roots, comparing its connections to both the Catholic Church and the Orthodox Church. Most importantly, I point out the adjectival meaning of "orthodox" and "catholic" in the Crede. From early Church Fathers to modern councils, this discussion covers a lot of ground to unpack what it means to be Byzantine Catholic today.
