What makes a church high church or low church? Is a formal, liturgical service more biblical than a simple, informal gathering? And how do different traditions—Episcopal, Presbyterian, and Congregational—approach church governance? In this episode, we explore the structures of church leadership, the theological debates around them, and why we should be open to different expressions of worship and governance. Maybe the Bible gives us more flexibility than we think.Get involved: We'd love to hear your thoughts! Don't forget to like, comment, and share your insights.

In this episode of Theology Unplugged, we trace the history of systematic theology, from the early Apologists like Justin Martyr to modern biblical theology. Theology has evolved through philosophy, logic, Scripture, and experience, shifting from Platonic mysticism to Aristotelian scholasticism, from Reformation confessionalism to modern biblical theology. We explore the great thinkers—Irenaeus, Tertullian, Origen, Athanasius, Augustine, Anselm, Aquinas, Scotus, Ockham, Luther, Calvin, Melanchthon, Beza, Arminius, Gerhard, Barth, Bavinck, Vos, Hodge, Berkhof, Ryrie, Grudem—and how their reliance on philosophy, reason, or emotion shaped their theological systems.

In this episode, we take a foundational look at textual criticism—the study of how the biblical text has been transmitted over time. Before we can confidently engage with Scripture, we must understand how it was copied, preserved, and passed down through history. Were there mistakes? What kinds of errors appear in manuscripts, and how do scholars identify and evaluate them? What materials were used for copying the Bible? What were the characteristics of the scribes who preserved the text before the invention of the printing press? And what about modern Bible versions—can we trust them? This introduction lays the groundwork for upcoming discussions on New Testament and Old Testament textual criticism, providing the essential prolegomena to the Bible’s transmission and reliability.

In this final episode on Sola Scriptura, we bring together the key arguments that demonstrate why Scripture is the final and ultimate authority for faith and practice. We examine the Bereans in Acts 17, Paul’s words in 2 Timothy 3:16, and the historical problems with relying on the Church as an equal or greater authority. By addressing common objections and reinforcing the biblical foundation of Sola Scriptura, this episode provides a closing defense of why Scripture must stand above all other authorities. Join us as we wrestle through these questions and lay out a clear and defensible definition of Sola Scriptura.Get involved: Michael's public blog: https://credohouse.org Courses from Michael and other scholars: https://credocourses.com Support me and get A LOT more stuff from C.

Many misunderstand Sola Scriptura—some reducing it to “Scripture is the only authority” and others dismissing it as an impossible standard. But what does Sola Scriptura actually mean? In this episode, we define Sola Scriptura as the doctrine that Scripture alone is the uniquely God-breathed, infallible, and final revelation for matters of faith and salvation. While general revelation (nature and reason) provides true knowledge of God, only Scripture contains the special, verbal revelation necessary for understanding salvation and God's will. We also tackle misconceptions, including the idea that Sola Scriptura rejects all tradition, denies reason, or requires Scripture to explicitly state every doctrine. Instead, we explore how Scripture and reason work together, why Sola Scriptura avoids the circularity problem, and why unwritten tradition lacks the verifiability needed for theological certainty. Even if Scripture itself declared tradition to be infallible, the core issue would remain—how do we know what true tradition is? Unlike Scripture, tradition lacks a fixed and traceable foundation, making it unreliable as a final authority. Join us as we wrestle through these questions and lay out a clear and defensible definition of Sola Scriptura.Get involved: Join us in exploring theology at a deeper level!

In this episode, I present a decisive refutation of Roman Catholic authority, challenging the concept of apostolic succession and its claim to ultimate authority. Building on the six defenses I previously outlined for Roman Catholic theology, I demonstrate why this system, while pragmatic in certain respects, ultimately falls short. I argue that it is unnecessary, unbiblical, and there is a better, more faithful way to understand authority in the Church. I explore the historical development of apostolic authority, tracing its origins and evolution with the help of clear, illustrative charts. You'll gain a deeper understanding of why the Roman Catholic model, though appealing to some, does not hold up under biblical or theological scrutiny. This episode offers a compelling alternative to the Roman Catholic framework, grounded in Scripture and a more effective vision for Church authority.Get involved: Join us in exploring theology at a deeper level!

In this episode of Through Theology in a Year, C. Michael Patton explores the Roman Catholic view of authority, often referred to as Sola Ecclesia or what he calls the “Tri-Fold” view. This theological framework relies on three interconnected sources of authority: Scripture, Sacred Tradition, and the Magisterium. Michael walks through seven key arguments in defense of this position, presenting the logic, historical context, and challenges surrounding this Roman Catholic understanding of dual sources of revelation. Whether you are a Catholic, Protestant, or curious observer, this episode will help you better understand and engage with the Catholic theological system.Get involved: Join us in exploring theology at a deeper level!

In this episode of Theology Unplugged, Michael unpacks the recent controversy surrounding Wesley Huff's debate with Billy Carson, which led to Huff's appearance on Joe Rogan's podcast. While Huff passionately defended the reliability of biblical manuscripts, his claim that the Isaiah Scroll is "word for word identical" to Codex Leningradus sparked criticism. Michael explains why this statement was problematic, clarifies the remarkable accuracy of biblical manuscripts, and encourages listeners not to lose confidence in the transmission of Scripture. He also discusses reactions from figures like Alex O'Connor, RussianKD, and Gavin Ortlund, offering insights into the broader debate.Get involved: Join us in exploring theology at a deeper level!

In session 66 of Through Theology in a Year, titled Authority Across the Spectrum, we examined various perspectives on authority in the Christian faith. Using detailed charts, we defined and compared Sola Scriptura with Sola Ecclesia, Dual Source Theory, Regula Fide, and Nuda Scriptura. Each perspective was explored, including its rationale and implications for how Christians view authority in Scripture and tradition. This session emphasizes the importance of balance, showing why Sola Scriptura stands as the safest and most stable position—avoiding the extremes while upholding Scripture's ultimate authority. Join us as we navigate these critical theological distinctions and set the stage for further exploration of Sola Scriptura in action.Get involved: Join us in exploring theology at a deeper level!

In this episode, I walk through the Development of Doctrine chart step by step, exploring how theology has progressed throughout church history. We discuss why doctrinal development is inevitable and how understanding this progression is essential for engaging theology today. While presenting an irenic perspective on various approaches, I argue that Sola Scriptura is the most natural and logical outcome of this framework. The Household of Scripture naturally fits into this progression—it doesn't produce it, but it arises as a natural result. Join me as we trace the church's history and its theological journey.
