EP 20 Church and State: Does Church and Politics Coincide?
🎙️ Welcome Back to the Parable Podcast!
In this episode, we’re joined by Fr. Samuel Fanous for a rich and illuminating conversation that takes us deep into the roots of Christianity — exploring the Early Church, its historical development, and how different Christian denominations emerged and relate to one another today.
Together, we dive into:
- How the Early Church understood faith, worship, and community — and why that still matters today.
- Key moments in Church history that shaped Christian identity across the centuries.
- A thoughtful look at other Christian denominations: where we share common ground, where we differ, and how we can approach these conversations with humility, love, and clarity.
This discussion is insightful, honest, and deeply grounded — offering a window into the beauty of the ancient Christian tradition while inviting listeners to navigate modern Christian diversity with discernment and grace. Whether you’re curious about Church history, seeking to understand the Christian landscape, or longing for deeper roots in your spiritual life, this episode is full of wisdom and clarity.
