You're listening to the SSPX podcast, and welcome to episode 10 of the Crisis in the Church series.

In this episode, we are joined by Father Paul Isaac Franks, professor at St. Mary's College, as we begin our study of modernism.

Today, we'll learn about the background of modernism. First, we'll see how it sprang up in Protestant theology, then how modernism tried to give an entirely new interpretation of Scripture and the divinity of our Lord.

And finally, how these errors spread into the minds of some Catholic theologians in the late 19th century.

By the end of the episode, you'll see how these theologians would have been extremely influential in the minds of churchmen throughout

the 20th century and beyond. If you'd like to learn more about this series we're doing on

No, it's okay.

You can ask that.

I can tell you.

The one toe is...
