In this episode of YouTube Catechesis, we take on a common but dangerous assumption: that every Christian can interpret Scripture with authority on their own. But where does the Bible actually say that? We explore key passages that challenge private interpretation and highlight how the early Church understood authority, tradition, and teaching. Drawing on the apostles, Church Fathers, and Scripture itself, we show why Christ entrus...

In this episode of YouTube Catechesis, we tackle a bold question: Why did the Protestant Reformers remove seven books from the Bible? We trace the history of these Deuterocanonical books, their use by Jesus and the apostles, and how they were affirmed by the early Church through apostolic tradition. We also examine the real reason they were removed: because their content challenged Reformation theology. Join us as we unpack how the...

In this episode of YouTube Catechesis, we take on one of the most foundational—but misunderstood—claims of Protestantism: Sola Scriptura, the idea that the Bible alone is the rule of faith. But if that’s true, how did the early Church survive without one? We’ll explore what the first Christians actually believed, how the Bible came to be, and why the Catholic Church has always upheld both Scripture and Tradition.

And if you want to...
