What happens when New Testament manuscripts disagree? For example, should John 7:53-8:11 and Mark 16:9-20 be considered "Scripture"? Should Mark 9:29 say, "prayer and fasting" or just "prayer"? What do we do when some manuscripts of the New Testament have one reading, and other manuscripts have a different reading? How do scholars determine which was the original reading? In this episode, Pastors Brandon and Zac give a basic overview into textual criticism.

Was Jesus's sacrifice on the Cross "once for all," or is it to be repeated daily or weekly? Does the Word have primacy in a worship service, or is it the Lord's Supper (Eucharist)? Is the Eucharist our work toward God, or God's action toward us? In this episode, Pastor's Brandon and Zac discuss the differences between the Reformed Church and the Roman Church regarding the sacrament of the Lord's Supper.
