That’s right! My new book, years in the making, is currently being printed and now available for pre-orders: The Obsolete Paradigm of a Historical Jesus.

YouTube’s algorithm can produce interesting results. It recently recommended two sharply contrasting podcasts. One was a sober analysis of church decline in rural Illinois by a self-described “old geezer” Christian; the other was an “audit” by a young Gen-Z atheist who raved about his visit to an Orthodox Liturgy. That afternoon I found myself going back … Continue reading "Dark Clouds with a Bright Silver Lining"| Handwritings on the Wall
Abp. Elpidophoros has accomplished a trifecta.

Brad East: In Linebaugh’s treatment of Scripture the church is nowhere to be found. For that matter, equally absent are tradition, liturgy, the sacraments, and the Holy Spirit. The result, if I may put it this way, is an account of the Bible and its message that is maximally and perhaps stereotypically Protestant. By this I don’t mean the book is “not Catholic.” I mean that it is so intensely focused on the “solas” — Christ alone, grace alone, faith alone, Scripture alone—that...| The Homebound Symphony
