Theological study of the Christian Church
POPULARITY
This essay explores the principles of a biblical management system rooted in decentralization, accountability, and mutual care, modeled after the early Church. It advocates for clearly defined roles, collective decision-making, and conflict resolution guided by biblical teachings such as Matthew 18:15-17, emphasizing reconciliation over punishment. Inspired by the parable of the talents (Matthew 25:14-30), the essay underscores responsible resource management through transparency, equity, and investment in community growth. Ecclesiasticism is contrasted with liberalism, emphasizing servant leadership and the rejection of parasitic behaviors that impose burdens on others. It calls for self-sufficiency, ethical work practices, and the elimination of freeloading. We are commanded to pay laborers their wages and to live in accordance with God's vision for humanity. We argue for a system that aligns with divine principles, ensuring that individuals honor their duties without exploiting others. Only when we can eliminate parasitism and freeloading will we have a just and harmonious community. Liberalism promotes and legitimizes parasitism. Ecclesiastical communities eliminate freeloading because it eliminates the justifications used to perpetuate it.

Want to reach out to us? Want to leave a comment or review? Want to give us a suggestion or berate Anthony? Send us a text by clicking this link!Is modern Catholicism failing young men? In this raw, unfiltered conversation, we tackle the controversial topic of gynocentric Catholicism and why increasing numbers of young men feel alienated from religious spaces.The catalyst for our discussion was a viral photo of Catholic influencers that sparked debate about representation, masculinity, and the "optics" of Catholic content creation. While we're careful not to attack individuals, we explore the crucial broader conversation: why do many young Catholic men feel that mainstream Catholic content doesn't speak to them?We dive fearlessly into topics often considered taboo in polite Catholic circles: the feminist influences that have seeped into Catholic messaging, the diminishment of male leadership, and the reluctance to address women's responsibilities in marriage while freely discussing men's duties. This imbalance creates a vacuum that figures like Andrew Tate exploit by offering a distorted version of masculine identity.Our guests Josiah and Mike Pantile bring powerful insights about what young men are seeking in authentic Catholic teaching. They highlight the importance of presenting Catholicism as compatible with natural masculine virtues - strength, protection, leadership - while rejecting both toxic masculinity and effeminate Christianity.Perhaps most valuably, we discuss practical solutions: how men can reclaim their role as spiritual leaders in their homes, set appropriate boundaries, mentor younger men, and present a compelling alternative to both secular culture and hyper-traditionalism.This conversation isn't about turning back the clock or diminishing women's dignity. Rather, it's about restoring balance and presenting the fullness of Catholic teaching on gender complementarity in a world desperately seeking authentic models of masculinity and femininity. If you're concerned about the future of faith among young men, this episode offers uncomfortable truths and hopeful pathways forward.Catholic FoundersThe #1 Podcast for Catholic EntreprenuersListen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifySupport the showSponsored by Recusant Cellars, an unapologetically Catholic and pro-life winery from Washington state.

1. Spiritual goal - know Christ;2. Physical goal - attain resurrection;3. Ecclesiastical goal - fulfil ministry.
Erasmus and Luther struggle over the question of church authority. Erasmus makes an appeal to doctrinal authority based on ecclesial order. Luther counters by appealing to doctrine driven out of Scripture alone.

Think for a moment about how we mark the passage of time in our lives. We all know how old we are. Students know what grade they are in. Workers know how long they have been employed. Married people count their anniversaries. Some of us remember America's bicentennial. Perhaps we pay attention to such markers to try to make sense of the meaning of our lives as those caught up in the inevitable cycle of birth and death, of one generation passing away as another arises. As we read in Ecclesiastes, “That which has been is what will be, That which is done is what will be done, and there is nothing new under the sun.” (Eccles. 1:9)

Simply put, while on this earth, we are and always will be subject to human authority. Human authority will ALWAYS be corrupt to one degree or another and cause HURT to other human beings.

The rest is up to God according to His will. I am confident that while He takes us THROUGH the current national and international mess. When we will come out the other end looking nothing like when we entered. And that may just be a very good thing from a biblical, truly spiritual perspective.

Echoes Through Eternity - "Reachable: 7 Keys to Loving, Mentoring, and leading the Church of the Next Generations"Reachablebook.comIn this episode of "Echoes Through Eternity," host Dr. Jeffrey D. Skinner introduces his new book, "Reachable: Seven Keys to Loving, Mentoring, and Leading the Church of the Next Generation."
