266. Pope Francis and the Crisis of Certainty 1vg1k

In this episode, host Jared Luttjeboer continues the series on the papacy with Drs. Alan Strange and Andrew Compton. As news breaks of a new Pope's election, the professors look closely into Rome's promise of certainty—examining why this intellectual security draws some Protestants to Catholicism, while revealing how these claims ultimately unravel under scrutiny. Against this backdrop, they candidly evaluate Pope Francis's controversial legacy, exploring how his unpredictable leadership and statements often undermined the very certainty that seekers were pursuing. The conversation thoughtfully balances critique with genuine hope, asking what meaningful reform within Rome might look like and how Protestants should respond to papal succession. 5w605v
