Anthony StineHOST
His loyalty is not in question.
Anthony StineHOST
He is the face of the Synodal Church.
Anthony StineHOST
The Synodal Church will have a James Martin face.
Anthony StineHOST
Meanwhile, Catholics who try to go on pilgrimage to holy sites in Rome are not allowed to enter into St. Peter's, even to process and to pray at the tomb.
Anthony StineHOST
That, ladies and gentlemen, is where we are.
Anthony StineHOST
But it's a very serious phrase from Scripture, like everything in Scripture is.
Anthony StineHOST
Never tempt the Lord thy God.
Anthony StineHOST
The Synodal Church is in the business of tempting God every single day, at every moment.
Paul IpemaGUEST
I remember what a senior pastor has said to me many years ago when I was a much younger pastor.
Paul IpemaGUEST
We were at Synod together, and he had made a comment to me that I ought to consider doing church planting.
Paul IpemaGUEST
And he said every pastor ought to consider doing church planting sometime in the course of their pastoral ministry.
Paul IpemaGUEST
And I thought at the time that that was a ridiculous thing to say because I didn't see myself doing as a church planter, but I understand now why he made that comment.
Kevin DeYoungGUEST
Yeah, there's some differences, key polity differences, between the CRC and the RCA.
Kevin DeYoungGUEST
In the CRC, that's more authority in the General Synod, so that you can...
Kevin DeYoungGUEST
Conservatives can mobilize and do something good at the General Synod.
Kevin DeYoungGUEST
And they have.
Kevin DeYoungGUEST
And they have, and the General Synod can then affect more broadly the things, where...
Kevin DeYoungGUEST
The RCA, each classist, which is just what we call the Presbytery, each classist would become really a safe haven.
Kevin DeYoungGUEST
And there was no provision, like the PCA has a provision that you can...
Kevin DeYoungGUEST
If you get enough people, enough Presbyterians, you can get into another Presbytery and ask them to give an account for something and initiate some process of discipline or inquiry.
James MartinHOST
I mean, his motto, in the one we are one.
James MartinHOST
And, you know, I always go back to, and we've talked about this before, I go back to the idea that Cardinal Radcliffe talked about in the Synod, which was quoting St. John Paul II, which is affective collegiality precedes effective collegiality, that you have to be friends, you know, before you can really talk about the difficult things.
James MartinHOST
I mean, that story about someone saying, what it was that I hated you all my life, you know, before, that's really something when you think about from another Catholic.
James MartinHOST
Let me ask you, it's interesting you focus so much on social media.
Dominic SteeleHOST
But should we work through the Church of England structures or withdraw from spiritual partnership with compromised or apostate bishops? The landscape has significantly changed in the Church of England in the last few weeks and We're just not entirely sure what it's changed to.
Dominic SteeleHOST
The results of voting for the Church of England General Synod elections are in, following a major mobilisation by conservative evangelicals, by charismatic evangelicals and traditional Anglo-Catholics, and a parallel mobilisation by liberal revisionists.
Dominic SteeleHOST
Orthodox Anglicans are in a strong position in the House of Clergy and Laity, but there are also more revisionists elected as well.
Dominic SteeleHOST
The group promoting same-sex marriage within the Church of England, they claim their numbers are up significantly.
Dominic SteeleHOST
That means that the mushy middle is significantly smaller and the Synod is almost certain to be more polarised.
Dominic SteeleHOST
But at the same time, there's significant disagreement amongst evangelicals.
Dominic SteeleHOST
The rector of the influential St. Helen's Bishopsgate in London, William Taylor, has powerfully argued online that faithful Anglicans can no longer engage in spiritual partnership with bishops who have supported false teaching on marriage and that this extends even to Orthodox bishops who remain in fellowship with them.
Dominic SteeleHOST
Vaughan, John, thanks for talking to us.
speaker_0NARRATOR
Five days ago, she had no hope of finding a cure for the blight, especially not with the help of an Asterion.
speaker_0NARRATOR
And now, she and Rue the Prophet were on the Synod's doorstep, poised to destroy their bioweapon right underneath their noses.
speaker_0NARRATOR
Orion had made it much further than she had ever expected, and there was absolutely nothing she could do now besides follow Rue's lead and be prepared to assist as needed.
speaker_0NARRATOR
She leaned into the mirror, staring at her own dark eyes until her forehead touched the glass.
Geraldine DoogueHOST
And they do sort of ask this basic question, how to be a good pilgrim? And that's what we're going to try to tease out a little bit, I think, Julie.
Julie ThorpeHOST
Yes, Anne Benjamin and Charles Burford have recorded all of their questions in their new book, Leadership After the Synod, which is a sort of guidebook for a synodal church, which you also endorsed, Geraldine.
Geraldine DoogueHOST
I did.
Geraldine DoogueHOST
If synodality is to amount to anything substantial...
Geraldine DoogueHOST
Hello there.
Charles BurfordGUEST
Oh, hi, Geraldine.
Geraldine DoogueHOST
Synodality after the synod is not an option.
Geraldine DoogueHOST
That's John Warhurst's sort of summary in the introduction to your book, which follows your 2021 book, which I got a lot from, Leadership in a Synodal Church, that accompanied our plenary council as the global synod was gearing up.
Steve GuerraHOST
Here is the deal with Meletius.
Steve GuerraHOST
He was never appointed to be a locum tenens of the See of Alexandria by the Synod of Bishops, and he wasn't going to be appointed as Bishop of Alexandria anyways.
Steve GuerraHOST
There are at least two reasons Meletius wasn't going to be appointed as Bishop of Alexandria.
Steve GuerraHOST
For one, Peter, the current Patriarch of Alexandria, was still alive.
Steve GuerraHOST
He couldn't exactly run the operation, but it doesn't seem like it was a major concern to the Synod at least.
Steve GuerraHOST
Secondly, Miletius was already the Bishop of Lycopolis, so he would have to give up his throne there in order to be made Bishop of Alexandria.
Steve GuerraHOST
Bishops holding more than one Episcopal see was absolutely out of the question at that time.
Steve GuerraHOST
The letter of four bishops representing the Synod of Egypt is really great.
Piotr NaterNARRATOR
He was a man of great learning, spotless life, profound convictions, and judicious moderation.
Piotr NaterNARRATOR
At the Synod of fifteen fifty-one, he introduced a confession of faith to which all clergymen were required to subscribe.
Piotr NaterNARRATOR
Under the influence of the papal court, the Synod determined to assume an aggressive course and to cite before ecclesiastical courts all heretical noblemen and clergymen.
Piotr NaterNARRATOR
Such violent measures only provoked the spirit of independence from the nobles, whose representatives at the National Diet of fifteen fifty-two appeared with the sharpest arraignment of the higher clergy.
Piotr NaterNARRATOR
A pronounced and zealous favorer of the Reform, Raphael Leszczyński, was elected President of the Diet.
20 MINS LATER
Piotr NaterNARRATOR
As early as 1546, the first Unitarians, who denied the Trinity, had met in Krakow.
Piotr NaterNARRATOR
Later the Cyonese nobleman, Lelio Sozzini, Socinus, after whom the whole sect are often called Socinians, came to the same city and gave them increased stability.
Piotr NaterNARRATOR
A Polish scholar, Peter Goniądzki, or Gonesius, boldly acknowledged himself an adherent to his doctrine before the Reformed Synod and founded a regular anti-Trinitarian church, which soon had many disciples among both nobility and commoners, possessed numerous churches and schools, and organised a synod of its own.
Raymond ArroyoHOST
She's the first woman ever to hold that job.
Raymond ArroyoHOST
At the 2024 Synod, she said the following, some women do sense a call to priesthood or diaconate and that the church should look beyond can we or can we not? Father, Rome has answered this question really from 1994 on definitively, really to Pope Francis, who said, told Norah O'Donnell, no, no, no, when she asked him about the female ordination.
Raymond ArroyoHOST
Should Sister Barron be the one running the church's missions while holding this agenda item out?
Gerald MurrayPANELIST
Well, I think anyone working the Roman Curia should be a reliable and orthodox defender of the faith, not someone who questions what is a matter of settled teaching.
