Episode 129: A Catholic Couch Convert who started argument with TWO POPES

About this episode

Pastor Andrew discusses J.D. Vance's meeting with the new Pope and the implications of his gift of St. Augustine's work.

If causing the last Pope to slip faster into the afterlife wasn't enough, now U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance has an audience with the NEW Pope, and presents this Augustinian scholar with an English translation of St. Augustine's "City Of God." What's behind J.D.'s lame gift? Pastor Andrew breaks it all down for us.
