Who has the authority to decide who’s a Christian? The answer might surprise you.
Who gets to say who is—or isn’t—a Christian? In a time of rising gatekeeping and division, we dig deep into the history, politics, and mysticism behind the question that won’t go away. From early church schisms to the Imperial Church’s power plays, from accidental Christians to the words of Jesus himself—this episode asks if anyone truly has the authority to decide who belongs.
You’re invited to wrestle with humility, authority, and what it means to follow the way of Christ beyond creeds and clubs. Join us as we seek a faith rooted in compassion, mystery, and open doors—not locked gates.
