The Cordial Catholic164: Bishops, Priests, and Deacons in the Early Church (w/ Joe Heschmeyer)In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by Catholic Answers apologist extraordinaire Joe Heschmeyer to discuss the structure of the Early Church.

The question is one of the most important ones to answer, considering it'll help to determine WHICH church Christ founded – out of many different denominations. In this episode, Joe takes us into the earliest evidence to show exactly how we know what kind of Church Christ fo...2022-06-291h 15Catholic Answers Focus#426 The End of Roe? - Joe HeschmeyerIt looks like Roe v.

Pints with Jack: The C.S. Lewis PodcastS1E43 – AA – Joe Heschmeyerwill be discussing theosis with Joe Heschmeyer from Holy Family School of Faith. He writes at Shameless Popery and is also on The Catholic Podcast. Earlier in the year, Joe came to San Diego and gave a presentation on the subject of theosis, so I invited him onto the podcast to help give us a clear Biblical basis for this doctrine which Lewis discussed at great length in Mere Christianity.2018-12-1139 min
