What divides Catholics and Protestants theologically? How does the role of Mary and the authority of scripture shape the faith journeys of believers in these traditions?

Premier Unbelievable?, host Andy Kind moderates a compelling dialogue between Dr. Leonardo De Chirico and Trent Horn, examining the key theological distinctions and shared values between Catholicism and Protestantism.

The conversation goes there - the authority of scripture, the concept of Sola Scriptura, and the role of the papacy. Both guests share personal faith journeys—Leonardo’s transition from Catholicism to Protestantism and Trent’s conversion to Catholicism—highlighting how missionary work, cultural influences, and a quest for authentic faith shaped their beliefs.

Key topics include the role of Mary in theology, the nature of church authority, and the historical context behind doctrinal differences. The discussion explores Catholicism’s emphasis on unity through institutional structures, contrasted with Protestantism’s focus on personal faith and salvation by grace.

While addressing points of contention, such as the interpretation of scripture and the role of oral tradition in the early church, the guests find common ground in their shared commitment to scripture and the centrality of Christ.
