In this episode of The Cordial Catholic Podcast, I'm joined by theologian and author Dr. John Bergsma to talk about the incredible and ancient Dead Sea Scrolls and what amazing insights these documents provide us into our Catholic Christian faith.
In these episode we dig deep into what the Dead Sea Scrolls are, what the community of Jewish believers that collected them were like, and how the way they lived and celebrated their faith has incredible implications for the beginning of the Catholic Church and the Catholic faith today. It's an amazing interview with a truly brilliant scholar – you aren't going to want to miss this one!
